  7. Item description says: 30 - 35 pounds. Heavier than I thought. Its what mercenaries and warriors of past eras wore as standard fare. Modern day soldiers carry 70 pounds of gear not including their rifle. A good .50 caliber sniper rifle weighs near to 50 pounds by itself. Hmm. Cut resistance and kevlar are good ideas. But I think that item you listed is cut resistant only, not stab resistant.
  8. Not search engine. Amazon searching for body armor. There are so many knife attacks in places like the UK. I wondered if chain mail would be a good option for daily wear. If it could be worn underneath normal clothing comfortably. If daily body armor wear became standard. Why not wear other types of body armor. Maybe if the apocalypse happens, we'll all be wearing some type of body armor. To protect against wild dogs if nothing else.

  9. What made YOU laugh today/tonight ?

    Why New York City’s Crime Rates Are the Lowest in Modern History In 1990, more than 2,200 people were murdered in the city. Last year, it was less than 300. By Rebecca Gibian January 11, 2018 Back in 1990, New Yorkers might not be able to fathom a time when murder wouldn’t be part of their daily lives. That year, more than 2,200 people were murdered in New York City. But after three decades of declines, the murder rate in 2017 was down to 290. The significant change marks a trend that has been occurring for 27 straight years: violent crime in the city keeps dropping in every borough. “(This year) will go down in history as the safest year we’ve seen in nearly seven decades, that span covers three generations of New Yorkers,” said Commissioner James P. O’Neill, of the New York Police Department, during a year-end crime press briefing held at NYPD Headquarters on Jan. 5. https://www.insidehook.com/culture/crime-rates-in-nyc-the-lowest-in-modern-history
  13. There's a youtube channel entitled Anatoly. Featuring a weight lifter 5 foot 10 weighing 172 pounds. Who consistently lifts weights heavier than men who are much bigger who clearly outweigh him. Is it possible he accidentally stumbled across some random type of qi training during his weight lifting career. Which gives him an advantage?

    Crime and violence were at all time historical lows in some US cities. New york politicians would cite this claiming their "stop and frisk" policy was responsible for achieving all time crime and homicide lows. If homicides in 1960 were 5 per 100,000. And 5.1 in 2014. That's only 2% difference. That's not enough of a change to account for the shift in public perspective. And so we must search elsewhere to explain it.

    1960 - 5 homicides per 100,000 population 2014 - 5.1 homicides per 100,000 Minimal difference. The only thing that changed is the media's reporting of crime.
