    Thanks for sharing. As expected, the orange blankets are, in fact, bulletproof. I approve of this measure, but orange is such a stupid color choice.

      Wait so you don’t even get the blankets provided for? You have to buy them yourself?!

      Omfg 😔

        Bruh, I can maybe see it happening, but I think schools would be the ones buying them instead. They’re expensive.

          That’s what I was thinking, how could they possibly expect families to afford these.

            1000$ each. And they don’t even provide as much protection, but it’s still probably better than nothing.

              Sorry kids, no school trip or holiday this year, we need to buy a mediocre bullet proof blanket that only protects against the bare minimum in case another deranged incel tries to shoot you.

              It’s kinda concerning as well given that a lot of these school shooters didn’t go in with a handgun or 22. but a full assault rifle which wouldn’t find those blankets that much of a challenge right?
