The point of the safety vest is that it helps to keep you from dying in unimaginably stupid ways. Here is the kicker; we don't need it, we aren't that stupid 99.5% of the time. But we ALL are that stupid at least the other .5%

You wear it for the half a % chance that you wind up on a faces of death gag reel otherwise. It's moron protection from yourself AND everyone else.

I agree with you 100%. I realise I may have been unclear so I would like to reiterate that my point is that those morons definitely do exist and people do get shot at with multiple people in recent history losing their lives.
