Law abiding citizens live within the law. The criminals do not. Why take away the one thing a person can do to protect themselves, even if they are denied the right to self defense?
In Oregon, the people gave up, like they were taught. Just like on 9/11, the pilots just gave up control of their airplanes. Just like they were taught. In both cases, the expected response was understood by the evil doer.
Light body armor would't help in all circumstances. But one of the students rushed the gunman. He was shot several times, but survived. If he had been wearing body armor, he would have succeeded in subduing the gunman. He was not shot in the head, because he was a moving target. The "head shots" were executions on people who had given control to the gunman.
