Tactical Bras?
« on: April 26, 2009, 03:22:58 AM »
DETROIT (Reuters) – A 57-year-old Detroit woman avoided serious injury when the underwire on her bra deflected a bullet shot at her from next door, police said.

The woman, who lives on the West side of Detroit, saw a group of men breaking into a neighbor's house on Tuesday morning. When the men spotted her, one of them fired a shot at her, a police spokesman said.

The bullet struck the underwire on the woman's bra and that saved her from a more serious injury, police said.

"It did slow the bullet down," said Detroit police spokesman Phillip Cook. "She sustained injuries but they're not life threatening."

The woman, who was not identified, was treated at a nearby hospital. The suspects in the shooting drove away.


 :o  If the underwire in her bra was stout enough to deflect a bullet, it must have had a serious workload.   :o

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison

Weird undies uncovered
By CHRIS BEANLAND

Published: 06 Aug 2008

This Wonderbra does more than just give you perky boobs – it could save your life.

German police have invented a new bullet-proof support to protect female cops.

The special bra is designed to be worn under conventional body armour and provides protection from bullets.

But unlike normal bras it won't shatter on impact if blasted with a bullet.

It is just made from fabric and comes with the word “Polizei” plastered on the bottom.

The bullet-proof bra goes straight into the top drawer of wacky underwear.

Here, we've had a rummage through to try some of the strangest out there on for size.

Me: Naw, we just apply a gun-shaped remedy to those extreme life threatening situations that call for it. All the less urgent problems we're willing to discuss.
