Um, body armor isn't illegal in most of the USA, most places it's perfectly legal to own and wear
I was just about to say the same thing! Glad i'm not the only one who knows.
Pretty much if there's some sort of "assualt weapons ban" in the state then body armor is banned too. But that's still less than a third of states.
The key part of that was “as a felon”. They made it seem as though nobody can own one, but it’s only felons who can’t own it unless it is for a job. Also, switchblades are legal in a LOT of states…quite a few things are misleading in this video
Here in Canada, I believe its legal to own body armor.
We made the right choice: Its guns that are prohibited.
@@Addicted2A91 actually a lot of places have laws in the books regarding mechanically operated knives. But, just like today people quickly learned you can make something similar but technically not illegal.
As a body armor dealer, I was about to rant at first😂 but yall corrected it. It genuinely surprises me how many people thing ballistic armor is illegal/restricted when you can literally have it shipped to your door in every state but Connecticut where it has to be a face to face deal
I'm a 2 time felon and I own multiple vest.. even trauma plates too. There is NO background checks to purchase.
@@robinthrill3r7 two time felon isn’t something to brag about. Hopefully you ain’t gonna be a 3rd time my friend.
@@WillF1980 it is what it is. 🤷
He's not bragging. He just saying it's not regulated and he was able to buy it.
@@robinthrill3r7 Don't let your past dictate your future, keep going man!
"There is no federal restriction on ownership, possession or carrying of a switchblade knife. There are some states that have enacted laws regarding switchblades (see State Laws Regarding Auto-Open Knives). The majority of states allow auto-open knives." I live in Georgia, we can carry switchblades, OTF automatic knives, guns, you name it.
I own several switch blade knives and carry them on a daily basis. I use a few of them to open boxes and cut tape at work.
If no one knows its legal
We have a 3 weapon law in my state, which when I asked it was explained (by a cop, nal) as you can carry any 3 weapons including guns, swords, batons etc. But of all things, spring loaded knives are limited to 3 inches long. Make it make sense.
You can also own full auto guns as long as you get a tax stamp lol
@@GabeHolm it isn't that easy but you're sort of right.
“The government assumes…”
One of the scariest phrases ever created.
A sure sign you need body armor is a government assuming you threaten them by owning it
Or you live in chicago....
@@jean-lucpicard3012 then why even let them own guns
@Robert Sears no it didn't lie at all, there's a federal law banning "convicted felons" from owning body armor and plenty of state and local laws banning wearing it in public and in some cases owning it
@@cringyhuman3210 let who, the federal/state/local governments who prove every day they have no problem killing unarmed civilians?

Ha! Accidentally, they’re just tired of being the only country that has to wear masks on a regular basis.
Switchblades always remind me of 12 Angry Men.
You can own a modern machine gun. You just need to be an FFL with an SOT stamp.
Came here to say that
If no one knows then its legal
you can buy the 7.62mm minigun since its old enough for you to be allowed to buy it

In World War II the Germans used wooden bullets sometimes! Think about the infections you would get, and the fact that you couldn't x-ray for the pieces. That's pretty horrifying
Best man I ever knew was wounded by a wooden bullet in the battle of the bulge. Had to remove a large piece of his arm to get all the splinters out. It left a ghastly scar, but saved the arm

@@SKtheGREAT I know how it works. This is why i said opinions might vary.
@@MrBeard17 you make a fair point I suppose
Body armor is totally legal, can be purchased off the shelf. Very few states have any restrictions. Restrictions for felons are where they are acting like it is a criminal tool mean nothing to the majority of civilians that can buy it. I own body armor.
Machineguns are totally legal, you can buy them as a civilian, they require a $200 tax stamp and must be purchased. You can legally make them as an SOT.
Switchblades are totally legal, and easy to purchase and carry in many states. I own some.
Nuclear material also generally legal, people purchase it in smoke detectors and radioactive sources that are used for Geiger counters as a test source.
Mines are legal, but must be command detonated, or become inactive with time. You can make a mine as a civilian with a tax stamp.
Do better research.

I thought dissemination of misinformation wasn't allowed on TH-cam. They sell level 2 body armor in my local outlet mall, AND you can get a permit in most states to own a machine gun... makes me wonder what else is blatantly false on this channel.
Misinformation is allowed on TH-cam unless it can cause real world harm, bizarro homeopathy for example. I don’t think this channel is guilty of misinformation anyway, if anything it just being incorrect or lacking proper information which there is rarely a rule anywhere online for “making mistakes”.
Plus toward the end of the statements he said “as a felon” and in that case it’s correct a person convicted of a felony can’t not legally be in possession of body armor. He also clarifies stipulations of owning an automatic firearm.
This is misleading, you can own a bulletproof vest, you can own a machine gun if you have filed the proper paperwork, and switch blades in my state were de criminalize over a decade ago, prior to that you were allowed to purchase and own a switch blade, but not allowed to carry it in public.

Actually, automatic firearms are legal in civilian hands if you have the gone through the correct legal route, and have an immense amount of money for a transferrable machinegun as THEY ARE NOT CHEAP.
Those cuck laws of 1934, '68, and '86 - and the '94 "assault weapons" ban - were all made by traitors, weaklings, and internationalist collaborators. I call them "law-mongers."

@@judsongaiden9878 yep, well the only way to fix these "laws" will probably be through a revolution and soviet style political purge of people who seek to destroy our country.
@@vulcandawg7623 Not necessarily "Soviet" style. More like Saigon style. Brigadier General Nguyen Ngoc Loan did nothing wrong!
@@judsongaiden9878 that'd work too.
Kinda makes me wonder if they do any research at all. Right off the bat, body armor isn't illegal in general.
In ww2 on the western front, it was usual to take 3-4 german soldiers prisoner for every 1 killed. When the British used flamethrower tanks they captured about 27 soldiers for every 1 killed because people just surrendered when they saw the tanks coming. This saved thousands of lives on both sides but after the war flamethrower tanks were banned because they were "inhumane".
There are quite a few things in this video that are misleading….part of me feels like it is because the maker is not well informed…the other, more conspiracy oriented, side of me thinks it is to mislead people into not owning items that the maker deems dangerous
Or the author just wants to generate clicks at all costs.
It's definitely misleading due to the title and topics. Whether they meant it as fact or a reference in history remains to be seen. I generally trust infographics but this is fishy. A simple Google search would find a lot of that out.
I tried looking up more information on the show, unfortunately the origins are vague, with the creation being in the US but doesn't specify which state. If I had to guess, it'd be California or New York based on the video.
FACT CHECK: In Wisconsin, any adult can purchase and use a bulletproof vest, unless that adult has been convicted of a felony. Bulletproof vests and all other body armor can be purchased online or face-to-face.
I couldn't find a state that outright banned them. And in Wisconsin all knives are legal to own though if you can't own a firearm, you can't carry one concealed and public buildings can ban carrying them inside.
I just ordered Body Armor from Brownells.

Switch blades aren't illegal either. Microtech Headquarters is located near Ashville, NC. I just went there (I live 20 min away) and bought 2 Ultratechs, 1 Combat Troodon and 1 Dirac. Came out to $1400. The Combat Troodon was $550 but was featured in the John Wick movie.

Government: banned machine guns made after 1986
Me with a MG-42
Fortunately there's a 2a for when the government "assumes" power
Are you sure? I'm watching this administration violate the Constitution pretty much daily.
EDIT: I mean ARE YOU SURE THEY HAVEN'T ALREADY ASSUMED IT?
@@moondancer9066 have you complied?
Body armor was on something like a 6-8 week back order last spring. You can own a MG with a special license. Somebody should have told that lab over in that other country about the bio weapon thing.
I like how the dartling gunner’s mini gun is banned and the Big earner from TF2
Lawn darts or 'Jarts'. My buddy had a set, and we'd play with them often, always standing well clear of their dirt destination. I miss 'em, they were great fun for a couple of teenagers. Love the background music! LOL, I was quite the disco dancer in the 70s.
As a civilian security contractor in oklahoma, I can say that infographics is somewhat wrong about bulletproof vests. All of our people are encouraged to wear them and do. We work closely with local police and as private security for some judges and never has it been an issue or even addressed. You can get and own a machine gun as long as you have a destructive weapon tax stamp same as .50 rifles.😅🤣
Yeah I concur with that statement. Bulletproof vest are legal for law abiding citizens. I also worked in security and encouraged the company to invest in body armor in the case of shooting.
And Machine gun part as well.
Is there also a special license for it as well? I'm not sure.
@@dragonkeys2860 no special lisence, you just have to have one made before 86, and NFA items take a long time to get
You can legally go buy bullet proof vests at my local gun shop I live in Ohio. Plate carriers and steel plates/ ceramic plates. I have one lol I think everyone should. 40% of us citizens own firearms why would you not want a bulletproof vest?
I used to work security in Denver. We were also encouraged to wear body armor on certain patrols, at our own expense, of course. I never did, for one reason:
I never took those patrols, there were plenty of police wannabe muppets who would take those jobs. My company never would pay any of us enough to keep ourselves alive, so I just refused to die in my own way, by working only the most safe posts. Boring, yes, but Win/Win, really. Simple.
Still, body armor is in no way illegal, lol. What dumbo wrote this video, anyway?
@@OG_BiggusDickus nothing else on this list is banned for only felons so idk wtf they were thinking including them, it's also illegal for felons to own firearms
4:06 "The government sprung into action"! 🤣
Illegality of knives...
The bladed weapons laws are some of the most confusing laws on the books. So confusing that they confuse even the police.
also, apart from body armor not being illegal in many places, this business with cluster bombs, I can remember reading a magazine called MILTECH in the late 80's that advertised all manner of crazy insane weapon systems ready to be purchased, one was, CARDOEN CLUSTER BOMBS, their advert said "devastatingly effective" I remember it clearly because it was a full two page spread showing the whole thing, with a cutaway revealing the innards, all the little highly impressive advertisement, if a little dark
This has got to be the most clickbaity thumbnail I've seen from this channel... the guy's carrying a mini-gun that fires radioactive darts with toxic chemtrails while wearing body armor on a battlefield (which most likely has mines and other illegal explosives)... and he probably has a switchblade in his pocket!
Yep, had to have everything.

For the record, they sell lawn darts again but without the metal tip, it's a plastic thing instead without the point
They also sell them unassembled to not be 'illegal'. Heres a package that does *not* contain a metal tipped dart... but a metal spike and some plastic fins that just happen to fit together.

Unfortunately, they have the power to.
I’m amazed that lawn darts were ever given to children. I was born in ‘77 and I had a set at some point in the ‘80s. My parents also gave me a wood-burning kit for my 8th birthday...wtf?!?!
I used to do woodburning as a teen. But yeah 8 is young without supervision.
I miss my chemistry sets and lawn darts , born in the day when research and pioneering was encouraged, when people were thought critical thinking and NOT to become robots.
Kids these days can't even cut toast with a butter knife
Kids were once tought to think first . Now even the leaders can't grasp the concept.
Cannot believe there are illegal things made in most of the countries.
Lawn darts is epic, I often play it in the summer as far as I know there still legal in England. Radioactive material's are in smoke detectors you can still buy them
I thought the lawn darts were a case of kids playing that game where they lay down, throw the darts in the air, and hope they don’t get impaled
I do love watching these kinds of videos because it’s interesting to see some of the things that are covered I’m kind of a history nerd so
Take everything here with a grain of salt. This channel is ok to get an overall picture of some different things, but there's a lot said that is often misleading, incorrect, and/or omits far too much information. Bad information is sometimes worse than no information.
That being said, it's a good vehicle to peak an interest in something you might want to learn more about and research for yourself.
@@Walter732NJ I understand what you mean, however personally I just like having a large range of topics covered briefly so I can get a general picture, if there's anything I'm particularly interested in I'll dive deeper into the topic myself and do my own research. I mean luckily I'm never going to have a test that asks me what weapons are illegal lol

Machine-guns produced before 1986 is transferrable provided you have the paperwork and money for it. After 1986, there were post-ban dealer samples that couldn't be sold legally.
Body armor is a safety product. It is legal in all 50 states for law abiding civilians to purchase body armor. ... As a citizen of the United States you have the legal right to purchase and wear body armor for personal or professional use. Body Armor does not require any special paperwork or background checks
Not even just body armor. They have backpacks for kids with plates or panels in them now. The world changed a lot in the past 10 years. @siim Oliver kalmus idk about Conn. but I’d recheck your updated laws if possible.
@@siimoliverkalmus7913 um, no. It’s not. Sorry. It has its own uses. And is MADE FOR, those uses. Straps often being able to be utilized to wear it either standard or front facing. So In a situation where backpacks are typically used. Often times, not necessary. If your talking not having it on. Takes maybe 3-5 seconds to get it on. Maybe 10-15 if you want to dump all the books and whatnot first... But when your cornered in a hall, room, whatever the case may be, with how society is now with horrendous actions, happening more often, unfortunately. Use your head and figure out where the active threat is, situate the bag between you and the threat. And if you have means to flee. You can, while protecting the majority of your vitals. If your trying to compare a plated/paneled backpack to a vest.. obviously they aren’t the same. 🤦♂️ that’s like me asking you to give me a drill, instead of a hammer to remove a nail. Can it be done yes. But a hammer is more efficient. And if your in a situation where you want full body protection. Obviously go vest, or plate carrier. Depending on usage and/or profession.
@@siimoliverkalmus7913 guees they haven't met me
They clearly said illegal for felons
@@siimoliverkalmus7913 who lied to you?
Body armor is actually legal in almost every state. A switch blade is legal in several states. Machine guns are legal with certain licenses. You can purchase radioactive material within a very specific small size.

There's a big difference between body armor being illegal, and body armor being illegal for felons.

Where I live, the knife laws go like this: No conceal carry of swords/machetes without a permit, no belt buckle knives, no brass knuckles, and no dirk or dagger longer than 3 inches can be conceal carried without a permit. Open or conceal carry any other blade you want.
"So the government assumes that if you want bulletproof vests or other body armor, you're probably planning to commit a crime where you're expecting to be shot at."
You know, like learning in classrooms and walking around school.
2:38 "Unlike traditional assault rifles"? Machine guns long predate assault rifles
He didnt mean it in that way. Assault rifles are more common and more commonly deployed on soldiers because its cheaper, lighter and more mobile. Thats why its traditional. They’re just more common.
Assult rifles are shoulder fire select fired weapons that chamber an intermediate cartridge. SELECT FIRE, they are machine guns! Good God a five minute internet search would have told you that.

You can do that in the US as well. This dude is clueless
I've seen knife catalogs that sell switchblades but don't refer to them as that. They say "retractable handles."
A number of states allow them. For example, my state, Wisconsin as of 2016 basically considers knives as tools, and as long as you're able to own a gun (if carrying a concealed knife) or carry them into schools or public places, then you are good. So OTF Knives, switch blades, etc are all legal to own. This is rather beneficial to some emergency services where being able to make use of a knife with one hand saves time when time is critical (IE: firefighters/paramedics)

Body armor is NOT ILLEGAL in the USA. You can buy ceramic armor (level 4) and even neutrally buoyant (which also come in level 4). Try some fact checking before making a video. Hoplite Armor sells to the civilian market only, and refuses to sell to law enforcement.
He states for convicted felons. Of course body armour isn't illegal for civilian use, but if you're a convicted felon then it's different, same as firearms (though I think some states that is different)
And now i realized i got a toy plastic mine from school as a souvenir for some kind of a memorial day. had no idea been possesing a replica of the most illegal thing in the world.

@@raptor73921 no problem
In the US a boy scout once built a nuclear reactor. He was eventually charged and later died of cancer due to the radiation. That's one of the reasons why civilians can't have nuclear reactors or weapons.
When it comes to nuclear / radioactive materials there is a licensing procedure. Generally naturally occurring radioactive materials including uranium ore are legal to own. It is only when you refine it that you trigger various licensing requirements. There are certain materials in small quantities that are exempt such as americium in smoke detectors, tritium in watches, thorium in TIG welding electrodes, The rationale is the quantity is small enough not to be a hazard if improperly handled/ disposed of / released to the environment. Above a certain threshold licensing is required to insure the materials are handled safely. Weapons grade fissile materials are no doubt highly regulated with probably only the Government or its contractors legally allowed to own it.
Great video mate merry Christmas and a happy new year 🎅🤶🧑🎄🎄👼⛄☃️
Found a switchblade in the parking lot of the gas station a mile from my house. Coincidentally it was shortly after a bunch of motorcyclists were there.
What’s stopping someone building a replica of an old machine gun and claiming it’s legal?
The average American doesn't need body armor unless they go to school
Body armor isn’t illegal dude, you can buy it on amazon.
"The average American is unlikely to need body armour". Yeah.
1: Bulletproof/knifeproof west are rarely illegal. Sometimes they are illegal by felons. However, the highest grade wests are considered "war material" and thus illegal for civilians to possess. The reason to make this difference, is that for example, any harder material can stop a .22, thus they have limitations. Even a pair of leather jackets could stop a .22, and the law includes using other things as "bulletproof wests" so the law has to be conservative.
2: Switchblades and undetectable knives, are 2 different things, that are both prohibited in many countries.
Switchblades are NOT prohibited because they are easy to "slip into clothing or contain it" - they are prohibited because they can be unfolded quickly in a street fight.
There are a second category of knives, so called "undetectable knives", for example certain ceramic knives, plastic knives and such, that are totally illegal to own. These knives are made not to beep in a metal detector. There are a legal requirement that civilian-grade ceramic knives, must contain a certain amount of metal to set off a detector.
3: Nuclear material is only illegal to possess in excess of certain amounts. Small amounts, whats called "samples", are still legal to possess. Many chemistry samples that can be bought by civilians anywhere. They are enough small, we are talking about grams now, so you wouldn't even set off a radiaton detector anywhere else than basically touching the material with the detector. This so smoke detector can be legal. And its pretty understandable that a amount of material that don't radiate more than background radiaton a few centimeters away, is legal to possess.
They must still be disposed of correctly.
4: Plastic shrapnel weapons are only banned if they specifically is made of a material that is hard to detect using X-ray. For this to happen, the material must have roughly the same density as water or a human body. Composite materials and other plastics that are way harder and will come up on a X-ray, is still permitted. This so the bomb is harder to detect before it impacts.
5: Cluster muntion are permitted as long as:
a - They contain a mechanism that will permanently deactivate the muntion if it fails to explode.
b - Each subammunition weight more than 4 kg
** OR **
a - Each subammunition weight more than 20 kg - then they don't need that mechanism.
6: land mines are not illegal. Personell mines are.
Its a huge differentation. Land mines that are actuated by a pressure force exceeding 150 kg is considered non-personell mines, and any anti-handling devices are deliberately made so it will not be disturbed by for example a human stepping on the mine, are excempt from the anti-mine ban.
HOWEVER, anti-tank mines that rely on tilting, seismic, tripwires or similiar mechanism that CAN be triggered by a human, are still prohibited.
Anti-personell mines designed in such a way it requires a continous trigger signal or similiar to trigger (for example, a soldier holding down a button manually) are permitted, as long as the button are designed so it cannot accidentially be left in a triggered state. This because such mines are not a threat after the war when the soldier holding the trigger active is no longer present.
This is called a "Command anti-personell mine" and is excepmt from the anti-mine ban too.
HOWEVER, the trigger signal must be positive, meaning a lack of signal may not be intepreted as a arming command. This means, you CAN wire the pressure plate in series with a detonator, and then have the detonator and battery in a soldier's hand, where the soldier must manually hold down a button, to keep the mine active, is permitted.
However, the battery is not permitted to be in the mine in that case, as spurious activation may be happen due to for example rain, or cable damage, shorting the leads and enabling the mine, thus its considered too unreable.
If the battery is in the remote held in the soldier's hand, any damage, shorts or disablement, will cause the mine to go dormant completely, same if the soldier becomes incapacitated and button is no longer held down.
Anti-personell Mines containing a self-deactivation timer however, is still prohibited, as those timers have been considered unreliable (requirement is that any disablement device must have a reliability of 99.6 % or more, and be confirmed to uphold that reliability even in war conditions to be approved).
I’ve always wondered what constitutes a “switch blade” as i walk around with a knife with an “assisted opening” feature that is no different other than it’s a switch on the back not a button on the side. You can buy these at any sporting goods store..
Lawn darts! That was the 1st think that popped in my head....
The U.S.: tiny blades, ILLEGAL!
Also the U.S.: semi-automatic rifles with 100 rounds magazines, LEGAL!
LEJIZLATION! :D

There needs to be a video on switchblades. They really wasn’t made illegal until movies made them popular. I’m sure that fighting the Italians in WWII didn’t help matters. Originally they were developed for paratroopers as a one-handed folding knife to cut straps if the trooper got caught up in a tree.
Interesting I Show, cute music going with this video List 😅 jazzy! 🎶🎶
Lol
I like medieval suit of armour reference and America seen as an ongoing wild West scene from other countries!

You also forgot to mention that in the US it's still illegal to get a machine gun if you have an SOT or FFA license.
Love that background music !
