| Female Bullet-Proof Vests '06 Certified While soft body armor can save the life of an law enforcement officer by preventing bullet penetration, the impact energy transferred to the officer's body will cause painful injury, called blunt trauma, most often in the form of severe bruises and even broken bones. The dangers from ballistic impact are particularly acute in the case of blunt trauma to female breasts. Breast, or mammary, tissue is easily bruised and heals slowly. Injury often results in necrosis, or death, of the mammary tissue with lumpy scar tissue eventually replacing the dead tissue. Beyond possible disfigurement, breast injuries from blunt trauma can result in loss of a breast and even death from internal bleeding.

We have your answer 01/10/2011 The high court refused to hear arguments from Cedrick B. Alderman, who was convicted under a federal law making it illegal for convicted criminals to own body armor that has been sold across state lines. Congress passed that law in 2002, citing its authority under the Commerce Clause to regulate interstate commerce. Alderman was convicted of armed robbery in 1999. Police caught him with a bulletproof vest in 2005, and he was sentenced to prison for 18 months. Alderman challenged the law, saying it exceeded Congress' power to regulate interstate commerce under the Commerce Clause. The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco upheld the conviction and sentence. The Supreme Court refused to hear Alderman's appeal. Justice Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia said they would have heard the case. Not hearing the case "threatens the proper limits on Congress' commerce power and may allow Congress to exercise police powers that our Constitution reserves to the states," Thomas said. The case is Alderman v. United States, 09-1555. 18 U.S.C. § 931 : US Code - Section 931: Prohibition on purchase, ownership, or possession of body armor by violent felons (a) In General. - Except as provided in subsection (b), it shall be unlawful for a person to purchase, own, or possess body armor, if that person has been convicted of a felony that is - N.Y.
