A portable protection system including a selectively collapsible truss for supporting a protection member. The truss is movable between a collapsed position and an expanded position. The protection member includes at least one layer of ballistic armor material for disrupting a projectile. The truss includes suitable connectors for releasably connecting the protection member to the truss, and also suitable connectors for releasably connecting the truss to an adjoining truss so as to form a protection wall.

1. A portable protection device comprising: a self-standing truss: andat least one protection member releasably carried by the truss, the at least one protection member including: at least one armor panel having: a front surface, a back surface and at least four sides;two adjacent edges perpendicular and flat relative to the front surface along two adjacent sides of the at least one armor panel; andtwo adjacent offset sections extending from the front surface, beyond two adjacent sides of the at least one armor panel;wherein a first protection member, when carried by the truss and located adjacent to a second protection member carried by the truss, has a offset section of an armor panel overlapping an adjacent perpendicular and flat edge of an armor panel of the second protection member, whereby all open seams between adjacent armor panels of protection members carried by the truss are substantially covered and reinforced by a respective offset section. 2. The portable protection device of claim 1, the truss further comprising: a first wall frame and a second wall frame, at least one of the first and second wall frames selectively secured to the at least one protection member; anda plurality of support frames movable between a collapsed position and an expanded position, the plurality of support frames extending between the first and the second wall frames and supporting the first wall frame in spaced apart relation to the second wall frame when the support frames are in the expanded position. 3. The portable protection device of claim 2, wherein the plurality of support frames are defined by a plurality of selectively expandable members extending between the first and the second wall frames, the selectively expandable members allowing the first wall frame to be selectively repositioned proximate the second wall frame to allow the truss to be selectively collapsed and selectively expanded. 4. The portable protection device of claim 2, wherein each of the plurality of support frames is selectively releasable from at least one of the first and the second wall frames. 5. The portable protection device of claim 2, wherein the plurality of support frames are rotatably connected to at least one of the first and second wall frames and movable between the collapsed position and the expanded position, wherein in the collapsed position the support frames are substantially parallel to the connected first or second wall frames, andwherein in the expanded position the support frames are substantially perpendicular to the connected first or second wall frames. 6. The portable protection device of claim 2, wherein the first and the second wall frames each include at least one holding member thereon for releasably engaging the at least one protection member. 7. The portable protection device of claim 2, wherein the truss includes at least one connector for releasably connecting the truss to an adjacent truss; and wherein the at least one connector is disposed on one of the first wall frame and the second wall frame. 8. The portable protection device of claim 1, the truss further comprising: an engagement means for releasably connecting the truss to an adjacent truss. 9. The portable protection device of claim 8, wherein the engagement means includes at least one of bolts, screws, pins, brackets, hooks, clips, latches, and ties. 10. The portable protection device of claim 8, wherein the engagement means is a connector securing corresponding and aligned holes in adjacent wall frames of the adjacent trusses. 11. The portable protection device of claim 1, wherein the at least one armor panel comprises: essentially flat portions of the front surface; andthe offset sections are beveled relative to the front surface. 12. A self-standing defense structure, comprising: at least two portable protection devices according to claim 1,wherein the two portable protection devices have connected self-standing trusses. 13. The self-standing defense structure of claim 12, wherein a top end of one portable protection device is connected to a bottom end of another portable protection device. 14. The self-standing defense structure of claim 13, further comprising: a roof providing protection against threat from above. 15. The self-standing defense structure of claim 14, wherein the roof is attached to a top end of at least one portable protection device. 16. A portable protection device comprising: a selectively collapsible self-standing truss, comprising at least one connector for releasably connecting the collapsible truss to an adjacent collapsible truss; andat least one protection module, comprising:at least one substantially rectangular armor panel, wherein the protection module is releasably carried by the truss,wherein the at least one substantially rectangular armor panel comprises: an essentially flat main section having at least two beveled sections along adjacent edges of the main section. 17. The protection module of claim 16, wherein the armor panel comprises: two flat edges along adjacent edges of the main section; andtwo beveled sections along adjacent edges of the main section,wherein when a first protection module is placed adjacent to a second protection module, a beveled section of an armor panel of the first protection module overlaps with an adjacent flat edge of an armor panel of the second protection module. 18. A portable protection device comprising: a selectively collapsible self-standing truss, comprising at least one connector for releasably connecting the collapsible truss to an adjacent collapsible truss; andat least one protection module, comprising:at least one substantially rectangular armor panel, wherein the protection module is releasably carried by the truss, wherein the at least one protection module further comprises:at least one handle affixed to a first surface of the armor panel; andat least one hook disposed along a second surface of the armor panel, wherein the hooks are configured to engage at least one holding member. 19. The portable protection device of claim 18, wherein the armor panel further comprises: a pivotal member proximate to the at least one hook,wherein the pivotal member is configured to allow for selective rotation along the armor panel between a free position and an abutted position,wherein the pivotal member prevents disengaging of the at least one hook from the at least one holding member when the pivotal member is in an abutted position.
