The company Bullet Blocker has been inundated with orders for its bulletproof backpacks since the Florida school shooting that left 17 students and teachers dead triggered a rise in the sales of their bulletproof backpacks.
The concept for the company first originated when a self-described “helicopter dad” and former U.S. Army Ranger became concerned about school security after the 1999 Columbine High School massacre during which teens killed 13 students and injured 20 others.
Then after the Virginia Tech school shooting killing 32 people , he said that was the final straw and started working on promoting the idea of kids protecting themselves.
It looks like a standard school bag but it’s lined with knife-and-bulletproof material called Kevlar that’s approved by the National Institute of Justice, an organization that sets body armor standards for law enforcement. Specifically, the fabric “traps and slows down” bullets shot from high-caliber weapons.
One woman bought one for every child she knows, and the wife of a New England Patriots player ordered three for each of her children. The idea is that kids can hold it up as a shield.
With the continuing violence of mass shootings killing kids in American schools, there are several companies that have come up who specialize in bulletproof kids wear.
