Please, the cops that murdered Elijah McClain came back and staged this photo.
Keep in mind Elijah McClain didn't commit any crime, they stopped him for being "suspicious", the guy is like 140lbs soaking wet, choke him unconscious, then inject him with 500mg of Ketamine, he vomits. Then dies somewhere between there and the hospital.
There's no part of his arrest that isn't a shit show, then one of the officers comes back to take this photo.
I'm not advocating violence, but taking your fight to the officers makes infinately more sense than burning down random businesses and blocking the street.

Not sure about laws, but make SURE is says "NIJ Certified", not merely "NIJ rated".
That and make sure the plates bear brand names and marks you can track. Plenty of Chinese know how to make shit look official and I wouldn't put it past them to send youtube celebrities 'genuine' ones so they can sell the counterfeits to the plebs. This doesn't just apply to E-bay but online gear sites like Midway as well, do your research.
If you go the route of a expired vest (stock made of steel, ceramic, and kevlar ONLY) make sure its never worn surplus, kevlar degrades through physical use and not time. I use expired kevlar usually as part of the trauma pad with good non expired plates, the extra padding and spall protection is worth it when you can get a pair for less then $100
