In most states the sale of body armor is limited to law enforcement only. In many states it is illegal/A felony to posses body armor. It's best to check your local laws regarding the issue. you can check your states statutes by going to your states website and searching for statutes .

This statement is ridiculous.

If you are going to make a claim, provide a verifiable source.

I have found a number of companies in the USA that are willing to supply body armor to civilians. I'm sure they would be closed down if it was illegal. I classify this as a secondary source as the Government is the primary source.

This is correct. New York has a pending bill to make ownership of body armor illegal for felons. In California, a felon convicted of manslaughter was, after release, later apprehended wearing body armor. California 2nd Court found the definition of body armor "too vague", and released him despite his conviction by a jury. As stated above, bulletproofme.com will ship to any state except Connecticut, where body armor is only legal for military and law enforcement personnel. The only correct part of the original answer is that you should check local law. Otherwise, the second person to post is correct. It's a ridiculous statement.
