When looking for a vest, check to see if it has a stab rating.

i don't think many would argue that having it for everyday use is a waste on most of us. but as some have said having it around for shtf scenarios or even just for some off the wall situation doesn't seem like a bad idea. the problem is its pretty damn expensive. but if, and im not that paranoid, but still, if the government was to fall or worse yet become oppressive, it wouldn't be too bad to have some protection if people are shooting back. its an interesting thought that ive gone from "i really want some just in case" to "its a complete waste of money, no way" and then back again.
