Army surplus stores should be able to hook you up.

They actually make backpacks with ballistic padding or the ability to insert an armor plate

Armor plate? sounds kind of heavy for a little girl to carry around.

No this is my girl. She runs, well, she runs like a girl.

Get her a Glock. The only thing that will stop a bady guy with a gun is a good girl with one.

This goof that I knew pretty well from the horse racing business got in a shitload of trouble for selling faulty body armor to the U.S. military. There's an episode of American Greed about him. He spent something like $13 million on his daughter's Bat Mitzvah. I think Aerosmith and 50 Cent played. He died not too long ago.

Probably not a good idea. These school shootings seem to happen mostly in bumfuck towns in the middle of nowhere. I can't think of a single school shooting that has happened in this area ever. Can you?

Yeah that's a big one, but I was thinking more middle school/high school shootings. I can't think of single one in my lifetime in this area.

I’m safe. I like 3 out of 4 of those guys and have spoken well of the one I don’t like this year.

Im going with metal detectors and a cop at every entrance of every school.

It's not perfect, but I think you'd put a dent in some of these shootings.

You can solve many problems by hiring enough cops to simply assign a personal bodyguard to every student.
