What's been in the News this Week...

New Zealand police are being kitted out with $20.7 million worth of new body Armour. It is more comfortable and has more customization. Commissioner of Police Mike Bush announced the roll out last week in Auckland.

I think it's a bad idea because that money could go to homeless people or a charity. I know we need to keep our officers safe because they do so much for us and they need to stay alive and look after  us and their families.
But I also think the main thing they are worrying about is being comfortable.  This doesn't seem fair when there are thousands of kids and families that don't even have a bed to sleep in.
