Bullet Blocker is a Massachusetts-based company that was started in 2007 by Joe Curran, a real-life father who wanted to do all that he could to protect his two school-aged children after witnessing the horror of the Virginia Tech massacre. Using the knowledge he gained while training as a Ranger in the United States Army, along with his experience as a Deputy Sherriff and firearms instructor, he invented ‘My Child’s Pack’ which was the first bulletproof backpack designed specifically for students. It received instant distinction, and was featured on many media outlets including the Boston Herald, ABC News, CNN, CNBC, Fox News, and The New York Times. The bulletproof backpack quickly became a consumer favorite and remains so to this day.
