All right now one of the things it has happened in the wake of the shooting is a Utah company that makes bullet proof.

Backpacks.

Has seen orders skyrocket -- bullet -- Backpacks.

To kids we have a piece on this -- foxnews.com.

Right now it is written by Joshua Rhett Miller who joins us.

In this -- studio right now.

Josh really bulletproof backpacks.

Unfortunately yeah since Friday he had these products and they are.

Produced by amendment to which is based in -- -- -- in the company yeah -- -- a 500%.

Since.

Friday.

I was unable to get the details of exactly how many have been sold but -- This is a company let's say hang it there's obviously -- need -- -- and so don't.

Basically going -- it's not just backpacks they do bulletproof vests to kids as well.

They have -- tactical vest which is 499.

Dollars and these backpacks they started 300 they go up to 400.

It's basically a flexible.

-- material that they call it's rhino hide right and basically what the idea is if there's a school shooting a kid could.

Potentially hold up the backpack and get themselves.

In back and men and potentially stop -- 357 Magnum bullet -- I don't see the -- can see the the rationale behind it of course all but why how what a commentary on.

On the way we -- well let me that your kid paranoid different sets want to give him the you know gee that's risen all I can hope is that the numbers supporting the 500% increase or they sold one before -- rifle fire that's.

-- -- that's my only hope there.

And I think that perhaps.

That is the case because there where they basically bought that telling how many that they had sole bright pink blue and so it's a 500 percentage.

Increase that could one point five yeah right -- since there's there's go to be a better way then.

Giving our kids bulletproof backpack.

That's that was not the answer they may be some answers about think that's it.

Right -- -- -- it wasn't cause our question of the day leaving weighing in the so far around 30% of you saying yes you would.

By a bulletproof backpack for -- -- Majority here just 57%.

As saying you know you wouldn't and thinking about it 13% of you I guess though I mean -- it.

It's it's question -- -- -- -- themselves in the in the wake of this is as sad as it is but yet and I mean as a parent myself.

It's a sickening.

That you waste rent do you have to think about -- but.

As -- said I suppose this company and they've actually getting hate mail.

From as far away really as Italy right and they're saying hey don't.

-- blame must there's obviously some coming in for it.

And there is a technology out there that could potentially help your can see why not.

All right.

Just -- for -- -- dot com and as the sage of season article on these bulletproof backpacks.

Is -- a folksy dot com if you wanna take a look at it -- Josh thank you very much.
