It must be dangerous down there in Alabama..... that you'd want or feel the need for body armour. A tough place, huh ?

So it is not strange to own a sword, but is strange to own a shield? People own guns for defense, why not armor?
On a couple of other forums, some members own level II or III armor and keep it slipped under the bed with one side open so if something goes bump in the night they can quickly slip it on, grab their HD gun and be ready to go. I've been meaning to get my hands on some Kevlar as well and do the same. Just because you are the good guy doesn't mean you won't get shot. Kevlar is cheaper than a hospital bill for a gunshot wound.
Sure I probably won't need it. I also probably won't need my smoke alarms or the spare tire for my car, but if you do need it, you
NEED it and waiting 7-10 days for UPS probably won't cut it.
