That way if things turn ugly for some reason you can just swing the backpack around to your front, draw your weapon and take care of business.

I've seen this same strat used for a Level IV plate, which fits nicely in a "laptop" sleeve; you just have to be semi-careful about dropping it.

I've heard of that too. You can get Kevlar patches or level IV plates in a variety of sizes for any number of uses. Put in a backpack or laptop bag, put a small one in the zip of pocket of your jacket over your heart; or, and God forbid it would ever be needed, put one underneath your baby's blanket while they are in a stroller. Keeps heat in and it's bullet resistant. In all honestly, anyone getting shot with Kevlar on may break a few ribs or get some serious bruising (a baby would be even worse), but thtey're likley to survive, which is what's important.
