I missed the "hold my beer" somewhere
Florida man killed after asking if bulletproof vest works,...
A Tampa police report says Joaquin Mendez, 23, put on the vest late Saturday and "wondered aloud whether it still worked." More News Headlines Police say his cousin, Alexandro Garibaldi, 24, pulled out a gun and responded, "Let's see." Officers found Mendez outside the house with a gunshot wound in his chest. Mendez died at a hospital.

I would have to say it does not work. Proof Positive.

I almost put that in the title but figured it went without saying.

Sorry, but there's only proof positive that it did not work. Better luck next time, perhaps?

Would have to see its rating to know which calibers it is supposed to protect against. Or if it was supposed to have an armored insert that was missing. Just because you have the condom wrapper doesn't mean you are protected.

Murder by the cousin, or merely manslaughter?
