Believe it or not, that stuff is regulated here. Yeah, I know, pathetic. Some is available and I know where to get it, but it draws attention. So...Shit huh?

Sorry, not regulated here, but those light weight panels keep calling me.
The class II fits under my shirt, so no one can tell I am protected...some anyway.
:'(
It's a sad state of affairs when people feel the need to wear body armour in general population...But I get it.
I wear one at church, because I am in charge of security there. Since Churches are now a target, and Debbie depends on me, I take special precautions, so I can continue to take care of her. I do plan on taking risks if we have Evil people show up.
I don't wear them anywhere else, but the class III is too heavy to wear discreetly. It does go good with my Ghillie Suit, LOL! That is where I plan to use the low weight ballistic plates.
BUT, I don't wear it every day, nor do I worry about safety. I guess I should be careful, I am the runt, LOL!

I do the same here, not armour, (armor) but I like to keep a good level of situational-awareness, know where exits are, not have m back to people etc. I think, in the society we live in, that's a minimum right? I'd carry if I could.
Here all citizens can carry concealed, it is called Constitutional Carry. The Brain is the best weapon, I have training DVD's teaching this called "The Bullet proof mind". Situational awareness is a large part of that DVD.
The class II is just a little extra safety, in addition.
I wish you could carry too. The more sane people that carry, the safer we all are!

I can recall seeing kids riding home on their bikes with a .22LR rifle slung on their back and a couple rabbits dangling off their belt. These days that just can't happen. We will never be able to carry in every day life here. There's enough who would want to I'd say, but it's never going to happen. It's against the law for me to even store a gun in my truck. I can transport it, even locknut in there when traveling to a gun shop, range, competition or hunting etc. But I have to be able to prove I'm on the way to use it, or way back from using it, if challenged by the law. There's other rules around it to of course. So, carrying will never happen.
I think I'm not necessarily super-prepared when out of the home, But so much more prepared than most, that's for sure.
You need to fire the liberal politicians and start over. It took them twenty years to steal your gun rights, it will take at least that long to reverse this! They tried to push some restrictions here, so we fired that governor, and put in a Conservative, and passed laws to extend gun rights instead.
Rifle racks in trucks are still common here. I have a long gun in my trunk most if the time, in case I get out to the gun club.
I bet those kids could carry pellet rifles to hunt the rabbits. They allow air rifles in the UK, and they have some large enough for deer hunting. Here they have some similar air powered units that shoot crossbow bolts...I want one, LOL!
