I had to stop reading on officer.com.

So many people there are so ignorant of the law, so adamantly ignorant of the constitution that it makes me sick.

Two words:

Continuing Education.

I'm writing my legislators about this tomorrow.

You can buy body armor on line. Body armor is defiantly legal in Michigan except by felons. There are additional penalties/charges for using one during a crime.

I believe the statute that Zig posted is for a person that was convicted of a felony and now needs to have body armor for a job, etc. It doesn't have to do with non-felons buying armor.

Linkage? Every online retailer I've visited requires proof of LEO or military status before they'll accept your order.

Nevermind... I think I found an online retailer that sells stuff to civilians. However, they have a list of "permissible uses" that they will sell for. I suppose it's not a stretch for the average person to fit themselves into this list somehow. But still... the idea of having to explain my purpose for buying body armor irks me.
