Bulletproof Blankets

New Bulletproof Blankets Offer Safety in Schools

That's right! In case you haven't heard and Oklahoma inventor came up with the idea for a bullet resistant and tornado resistant. This blanket (seen above) can resist 90% of the types of guns used in past school shootings. 

I think this is a wonderful idea. We  need something to help protect our children when they are at school. School incidents have become too frequent and too many innocent children are being killed. However, these blankets are a little pricey they run around $1,000 per blanket. I am worried that all of the schools would not be able to afford them. Local businesses and the community could work together and fund-raise some of the money to help keep the children of their community safe. 


Once these blankets are bought the children need to practice with them several times. This would greatly help in the event of an intruder in the school. 



What are other ways we could keep our children safe in schools?
