There's been an increase in sales of bullet-resistant backpacks for children, in the wake of the mass shootings in El Paso and Dayton last weekend.American companies selling the items say they're catering to heightened demand from parents during the back-to-school shopping season.But critics argue they are using tragedy as a marketing opportunity and exploiting parents' worst fears.Safety is high on the minds of many parents, especially after the El Paso and Dayton, Ohio shootings that left 31 people dead."We've definitely seen a spike over the past week or so in sales and that could be attributed to back to school but it could be attributed to some of the national events that are happening as well, "said Yasir Sheikh, founder and president of Skyline USA.His company makes Guard Dog Security products like pepper spray and stun gun,s and started offering bullet-resistant backpacks called ProShield Scout for children last year.Steve Naremore founded Houston-based TuffyPacks in late 2015 after his daughter, a fourth-grade teacher, told him about the frequency of active shooting drills for her students.His company produces some bullet-resistant backpacks but the bulk of his business is in removable ballistic shields that are inserted in backpacks.Naremore says his backpacks could be the difference between suffering "lethal versus non lethal" injuries."Some (parents) say to me 'I can't believe the world has come to this I have to send my child to school with a bulletproof backpack'. The other half say it's something that is probably necessary," he comments.TuffyPacks markets its products on its website with mass shootings in mind. And its backpacks don't come cheap. TuffyPacks' shields range in price from 9 to 9. Skyline's ProShield Scout backpacks are priced at 9, although it's less than the adult version that tops at 9.Some also cast doubt on the backpacks' safety and how much they can really protect children.Both Guard Dog Security and TuffyPacks claim their products are tested in independent labs in line with the standards for the National Institute of Justice and meet the requirements for a Level IIIA rating. That means the shields can thwart a 9-millimeter handgun and a .44 magnum. Naremour says it's like wearing a police vest.But the National Institute of Justice — the research, development and evaluation arm of the Department of Justice that comes up with the rating — has itself never conducted tests on these products or certified them and therefore cannot vouch for them.Educational experts say bullet-resistant backpacks are not the solution.Still, the makers of bullet-resistant backpacks have tapped into a fear that is real. And for parents feeling helpless and looking for an answer, the backpacks provide them with one.Marisol Rodriguez of Milwaukee said she is considering buying one for her 13-year-old son."It shouldn't have to come to the selling bulletproof backpacks," she said. "That just goes to show what type of society we live in today." 3026

The suspect accused of carrying out Friday's terror attack in Christchurch, New Zealand, was likely on his way to carry out a third shooting before he was stopped by authorities, New Zealand's top police official said.Fifty people were killed when a gunman opened fire inside two mosques last week. Authorities have charged Brenton Tarrant, a 28-year-old Australian man, with murder in connection with the incident. More charges are expected.Police Commissioner Mike Bush said Wednesday that authorities "absolutely" believe they stopped the suspect "on the way to a further attack.""Lives were saved," he added, but declined to go into detail to not "traumatize others."The first funerals were held Wednesday for Khaled Mustafa, 44, and his son, 15-year-old Hamza.Hundreds of people stood in solemn silence at Memorial Park Cemetery, where graves had been dug to bury dozens of victims.New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda was back in Christchurch, Wednesday, to offer comfort to those affected by the tragedy.Speaking at news conference, Arden announced that the country will will hold a two minute silence to commemorate the victims of the mosque massacre this coming Friday."There's a sense among New Zealanders that they wish to show to the Muslim community their support, their love," said Arden."But the challenge for all of us going forward is that they're safety is assured by making sure we never have an environment where violent extremist ideology can flourish. And that means addressing racism and extremism wherever it emerges."Ardern also announced that the Islamic call to prayer will be broadcast Friday on TV New Zealand and Radio New Zealand in support of the country's Muslim population.While many family members have expressed understanding about the time it is taking to receive victims' bodies for burial, others have voiced frustration. Islamic funerals typically are held as soon as possible after death.Mohamed Safi, 23, lost his father in the attack at the Al Noor mosque. He said the authorities have not explained their process for identifying his father's body and have been slow to offer details."They're offering nothing, they're saying, 'We're doing our procedures and process.' Why do I not know what you're doing to identify the bodies?" Safi told CNN."They know that our Islam is about patience. They're testing our patience right now," Safi said.Ardern said she shared the frustrations voiced by the victims of loved ones, but also noted that authorities were under significant strain due to the number of victims.She said 30 of the victim's bodies have been identified and approved for release."I know the process has been incredibly difficult, frustratingly slow from the perspective of family members, but on the (other) side, I've seen those who are working on this process as well and I can also acknowledge that they are working incredibly hard too," Ardern said.Arden said she had met with Muslim community leaders and her primary aim was to reunite victims with their families. "I am absolutely united for our determination to reunite families with their loved ones."On Tuesday, Ardern had used her first appearance in Parliament since the attack to praise the "extraordinary courage" demonstrated by mosque worshipers and police during one of the country's "darkest days."She also noted that "there have rightly been questions around how this could have happened here. In a place that prides itself on being open, peaceful, diverse. And there is anger that it has happened here."Since the massacre, Ardern has spoken with emotion and empathy, reassuring families and updating the public with the latest on the investigation. It has been the 37-year-old's face -- and not that of the suspected shooter -- that has come to dominate media coverage.During her Tuesday address, Ardern vowed never to use the alleged shooter's name: "He is a terrorist, he is a criminal, he is an extremist, but he will, when I speak, be nameless, and to others I implore you: Speak the names of those who were lost rather than the name of the man who took them. He may have sought notoriety but we in New Zealand will give him nothing -- not even his name." 4191
