Ballistic protection is no longer just an option in your safety plan, it’s essential. Since the Columbine school shooting in 1999, there have been 386 school shootings. This means 356,000 students have been exposed to gun violence, according to the Washington Post. In fact, there were more school shootings—46— in 2022 than any other year since 1999.
