Bulletproof "Nappie" Blankets ..

Hi America
this is what the school kids are wearing nowadays. 
BULLETPROOF PROTECTION

and
they only cost
$1000
EACH

When I saw this, read what it was .. how did I feel ... sickness in the stomach, sad, upset, disbelieving, I'm not sure what all emotions came to mind. I remember some similar photographs during the Cuban Missile Crisis. I wonder if this doubles as their little nappie blanket things. A bulletproof nappie blankee. "What is that orange thing, Dear?"

"It's my bulletproof nappie blanket Mommy, is't it purty?"

Are we a great nation or what? 

Why are they orange? Is it a visibility issue, I would think another more bland color might be more practical.
