    New York's rush job has hit a snag.

    During the May 14 attack, Payton Gendron wore a steel-plated vest, an armor strong enough to stop a handgun round fired by a store security guard who tried to halt Gendron’s rampage.

    A law hastily enacted by state lawmakers after the attack restricts sales of vests defined as “bullet-resistant soft body armor.”

    Soft vests, which are light and can be concealed beneath clothing, can be effective against pistol fire. Vests carrying steel, ceramic or polyethylene plates, which can potentially stop rifle rounds, aren’t explicitly covered by the legislation.

    New York’s law restricts sales of soft bullet-resistant vests to people who work in law enforcement and the military, plus people in certain other professions that require protective gear. The list of what types of jobs qualify someone to buy armor, and which don’t, is still to be determined by state officials.

    New Yorkers are still allowed to own body vests and purchase them in other states, though Jacobson, a Democrat, said he would work to eliminate that option during the next Legislative session in January.

    “We wanted to get things done as quickly as possible, and not let the perfect get in the way of the good,” said Jacobson. “Like all laws in New York State, we always try to make them better in the future. Of course we’ll try to make this law better.”
    The law also bans journalists from purchasing body armor.

    People who work at Fox and Rebel News are also under the "journalists" umbrella.

    There are real journalists at FNC. Mostly local and international correspondents. And if I had to guess, FNC treats them very well, because they know internally (but would never admit) that a mass exodus of that minority would eventually sink the station.

    A couple of the memes the right is using to demonize Red Flag laws.

    I guess he sees no problem with mass shootings happening all around him as long as he doesn't have to hear about it. Ostrich head in sand, etc.

    Only thing Gates wants to be bombarded with is underaged girls. So it's understandable that he doesn't want to be distracted with all these others problems popping up in his feed.

    Shouldn't he be all for anything to stop school shootings since that would protect the underage girls he is all about?

    Acceptable breakage to keep him in his position. The old adage of plenty of still living fish in the underaged sea.

    No, because if they are safe in the schools he can't get to them. He needs active shooters to flush them out.

    Already ensured the supply isn't threatened. Why else was he in support of banning abortion?!
