Hey everyone
I have no idea what is going on but I went to call in an order for Kevlar wicking a couple days ago from a company I have done business with for over 4 years.

They would not sell me any wicking and informed me that it is now regulated
by the government I have have been jumping through hoops for the last two days filling out endless amounts of paper work
They even went as far to ask for my customer list Of who bought from me in the last 3 years. We still do live in America don't we? Finally to day my lawyer got everything handled at least to were I can buy Kevlar wicking.

The government would not even give him clear answers as to what they are doing but he suspects the Hsa (Homeland security) he said what they were asking me for and how they are handling it is fairly basic protocol for seeking out terrorists.

This is a load of shit and pisses me off that i dont have the freedom to express and profit from my art.

    Yeah, that's fucked up. It's not like you're trying to buy Kevlar body armor or anything. What are terrorists going to do with wicking? I haven't ordered in a while, but when I do I hope I don't experience that kind of red tape. Who's the supplier (if you can say)?
