Yeah, that's the one in my OP. It's not a 'bullet proof vest'. It's just a vest. Edweird Jul 2012 #144

Ok, now which one of those is a bullet proof vest? (Hint: NONE) Edweird Jul 2012 #157

Why would you expect every piece of evidence to be already made public pnwmom Jul 2012 #201

Seriously? We know what he bought and when and where he bought it. Why would this one item Edweird Jul 2012 #202

Seriously? You think omissions never occur? pnwmom Jul 2012 #215

About a 'bullet proof vest'? That's extremely significant. Edweird Jul 2012 #218

Thank You! nt aka-chmeee Jul 2012 #153

PS: I agree with you cthulu2016 Jul 2012 #36

Obama and the families don't want the shooter glorified by attention. freshwest Jul 2012 #4

That's BS. We know everything he bought when and where. Edweird Jul 2012 #10

What's BS? Is that the liimit of your debating abilities? Here's my post, which you didn't read: freshwest Jul 2012 #43

Well, thanks for the kick. Right now I'm looking for bullet proof vest info. We can fight later. Edweird Jul 2012 #49

No, no, I'm good, really! No worries... CTyankee Jul 2012 #177

That? Oh that's just how I say "HI" :) Edweird Jul 2012 #203

he's trying to argue that everyone should have been armed in the theatre and that would prevented samsingh Jul 2012 #37

Thanks for the kick. Edweird Jul 2012 #57

You Want Us To Prove A Negative ProfessorGAC Jul 2012 #22

No, I want you to prove that he WAS wearing a bullet proof vest. Not "someone said" Edweird Jul 2012 #26

See My Reply To Your Defender ProfessorGAC Jul 2012 #90

We know everything he bought. When and where. The news articles, like the one in my OP, Edweird Jul 2012 #100

You've got it backward - he's asking for proof of the bullet-proof assertion petronius Jul 2012 #29

Don't Agree ProfessorGAC Jul 2012 #88

I don't believe Edweird is a Klondike Bar as reported. Prove me wrong. trumad Jul 2012 #35

How many innocent men have been executed due to incorrect facts? Remmah2 Jul 2012 #48

well in his mind they are cowards anyway samsingh Jul 2012 #53

Good way to distort what I said. I was referring to myself, and myself alone. Edweird Jul 2012 #62

For $306.79 the order can not be duplicated, not even close. Remmah2 Jul 2012 #40

My name is Indigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prove me wrong. LanternWaste Jul 2012 #41

So.... nothing but a kick? Thanks for the kick! Edweird Jul 2012 #46

People are kicking it to laugh. Lex Jul 2012 #50

Hey, I got a little rough about this and I want to know if I'm wrong. Edweird Jul 2012 #65

Hate you? leftynyc Jul 2012 #73

Yet you yourself spam and kick..... Edweird Jul 2012 #91

Presumably the police have whatever he was wearing cthulu2016 Jul 2012 #52

No, it's not 'unknowable' - we have everything he bought - except the vest. Edweird Jul 2012 #61

Certainly it is unknowable cthulu2016 Jul 2012 #63

We know the brand and model of everything else. I don't see how this is 'unknowable'. Edweird Jul 2012 #67

Then you don't see it. cthulu2016 Jul 2012 #71

Maybe it was a Christmas present. bluedigger Jul 2012 #69

No, it's been stated clearly that he bought it. But even if it was, Edweird Jul 2012 #74

Have you never lived in Colorado? DocMac Jul 2012 #118

I don't see what you're geting at. Was he wearing a 'bullet proof' vest or not? Edweird Jul 2012 #124

I'm sayin that your op is bullshit, for one. DocMac Jul 2012 #130

Without proof your assertion is worthless. Edweird Jul 2012 #135

This thread is worthless! nt DocMac Jul 2012 #146

NO U! Edweird Jul 2012 #150

However, that post was good. lol. nt DocMac Jul 2012 #164

You don't know shit. bluedigger Jul 2012 #145

Meh. I made my case in the OP. Now you make yours. Show me some proof. Edweird Jul 2012 #152

You want accurate reporting based upon actual facts? Facts slow things down. AnotherMcIntosh Jul 2012 #54

Why does it matter anyway? n/t doc03 Jul 2012 #58

What does it matter? Bulletproof gear or not, are the victims any less dead? Blue_Tires Jul 2012 #59

This thread WilliamPitt Jul 2012 #64

I can't see it but I'm sure it's as witty as it is insulting - but shouldn't you be researching Edweird Jul 2012 #70

Clint Eastwood made his own DocMac Jul 2012 #66

Ok, so substantiate that. You've got a theory now prove it. Edweird Jul 2012 #80

Don't you have the ability to watch the movie? DocMac Jul 2012 #101

I'm looking for someone to come forward and show me what kind of bullet proof vest he was wearing. Edweird Jul 2012 #114

So did Ned Kelly and his gang: petronius Jul 2012 #84

And that's as good an answer as i've seen. DocMac Jul 2012 #105

With all due respect, but what does it matter if he was wearing one or not? Alduin Jul 2012 #68

I'm getting ready to get a glass of Prosecco. Care to join me? CTyankee Jul 2012 #75

Sure. Alduin Jul 2012 #78

too heavy for me but that's good! CTyankee Jul 2012 #193

I just had a huge rough fight about it and if I'm wrong I want to know. Edweird Jul 2012 #76

Does it matter if you "win" an online "fight?" Alduin Jul 2012 #81

No, but I was harsh with some people and if I'm wrong I want to apologize. Edweird Jul 2012 #85

Touche. Alduin Jul 2012 #96

if everyone krhines Jul 2012 #83

Ok, so someone in that group of 'everyone' knows what he was wearing. Edweird Jul 2012 #93

So this is a continuation of the thread where you called the victims "cowards"? zappaman Jul 2012 #77

The only thing despicable is your deliberate micharacterization. Edweird Jul 2012 #89

"Better than dying a coward's death. If I fight I at least have SOME chance." zappaman Jul 2012 #97

It's okay. zappaman Jul 2012 #107

Ok then. Edweird Jul 2012 #110

Wow mythology Jul 2012 #182

Eh, that's people taking stuff out of context. We all know the theater was 'gun free'. Edweird Jul 2012 #184

lol krhines Jul 2012 #79

You can purchase surplus body armor in cash at gun shows. OneTenthofOnePercent Jul 2012 #87

Ok, but there's going to be a tag on the vest. What kind was it? Edweird Jul 2012 #94

I looked at his vest...it was definitely body armor...prove me wrong... rfranklin Jul 2012 #99

I made my case in the OP - now make yours. Edweird Jul 2012 #136

No tag, but here's the instruction manual. Tejas Jul 2012 #139

Is that Star Wars? Edweird Jul 2012 #147

Brady: it'll stop 50BMG at 20 miles. Tejas Jul 2012 #160

Call the police dept and ask them. n/t Lucinda Jul 2012 #115

What do you mean "tag"? OneTenthofOnePercent Jul 2012 #123

Yeah, that's the tag. Edweird Jul 2012 #134

You are a prime example why we need more gun regulations Boxcar Willie Jul 2012 #92

LOL. Edweird Jul 2012 #95

WTF? chowder66 Jul 2012 #126

Do you have ANY proof that he wore a 'bullet proof' vest besides "everyone says"? Edweird Jul 2012 #155

NO. I was not there. Were you? chowder66 Jul 2012 #171

I'm really getting tired of these gun threads steve2470 Jul 2012 #109

and quite a few are losing them...their minds I mean! likesmountains 52 Jul 2012 #113

It would sting so much more if you could prove he was wearing a 'bullet proof' vest. Edweird Jul 2012 #119

I hesitate to even reply, but I could not really care less if he was wrapped in saran or encased in likesmountains 52 Jul 2012 #125

It's getting really nasty Marrah_G Jul 2012 #132

Oh but this is a 'bullet proof vest' thread. Totally different. Edweird Jul 2012 #205

uh huh nt steve2470 Jul 2012 #208

With the right bullet, nothing is really bulletproof. hobbit709 Jul 2012 #116

Too true. That why I refer to it as 'bullet proof'. Edweird Jul 2012 #140

Why is this relevant? Trunk Monkey Jul 2012 #127

That's true. I just had a rough fight with some long time members and if I'm wrong I want to know. Edweird Jul 2012 #137

I don't care if he was wearing this ... JoePhilly Jul 2012 #128

accuracy in reporting vs making crap up? Tejas Jul 2012 #141

Sounds AWESOME! Edweird Jul 2012 #163

Yes, but can you prove that it is the right one? nt DocMac Jul 2012 #216

Yes I can! Texasgal Jul 2012 #220

Here is what he was wearing, according to earlier DU thread--looks different than librechik Jul 2012 #151

Not even in the same universe with 'bulletproof'. Tejas Jul 2012 #158

Maybe Holmes thought it was bullet proof. Doesn't change anything even if he were naked. Hoyt Jul 2012 #167

So, you could care less about accuracy in reporting? Tejas Jul 2012 #170

In this case, I really don't give a dang whether he was wearing armor or not. He did use guns that Hoyt Jul 2012 #175

Yeah, he had bad breath too. Tejas Jul 2012 #183

It's ... not really possible for someone to confuse a tactical vest for body armor. (nt) Posteritatis Jul 2012 #226

Ooh intimidating -but not supported by the information we have. Edweird Jul 2012 #159

"HEY, who said he bought it retail?" jp11 Jul 2012 #174

I'm not saying he bought it retail - or that he even bought it. Edweird Jul 2012 #187

Does proof of one vest prove he does not own more? chowder66 Jul 2012 #178

No but the only proof I've come along so far leads to a 'tactical vest' or whatever Edweird Jul 2012 #189

That's fine. Reports usually are a bit disconnected in the first week or so... chowder66 Jul 2012 #196

I agree with you Edweird,tired of all this vest talk from Kingofalldems Jul 2012 #179
