new paradigm Rob, you shoot them in the pelvic area

Actually the head is a rather small, hard to hit target.
You 'smite them hip and thigh' (somebody a long, long time ago seems to have had it figured out already). No one, absolutely no one can stand up when the pelvic/femur/lower spine is shot to hell.
If 'two to the chest' don't work, you shoot them in the very low belly. You shoot them down and nail them there.
And if you punch a hole through the femoral artery...

I like your reply Rob!!
Many people see a vest carrier and say "Body Armor!"
by Miles , CIVITATES AMERICAE, Tuesday, May 05, 2015, 14:54 (3480 days ago) @ Cherokee
and 99.44% of journalists wouldn't know the difference even if it dropped on their foot.
Pics clearly show a piece of bhloody armor at the scene.

I've been looking around and have seen nothing definitive, but that doesn't mean much.
Truth about guns , bearing arms...

I see what you're talking about
by Miles , CIVITATES AMERICAE, Tuesday, May 05, 2015, 21:06 (3480 days ago) @ Rob Leahy
parts of what's been indicated do have an appearance that would lead one to surmise 'armor'. But with all the 'sploded vehicle interior parts laying around, I am still kind of leery
I would still like to read the real police report on it, but it looks like no one's talking......yet.
And we now have a higher resolution pix

That's an armor vest alrighty.
But geez, even level 2A armor will stop a .45 and that stuff is easily to get.
From the looks of the hit, maybe these bozos bought level 1 (Can you even find level 1 nowadays), or just the carriers?!
More info, we need more info.
