Actually, there have been well documented cases of 12 ga slugs and 00 buck to the chest not stopping an attack, or letting the hittee run a ways,
meaning he COULD have attacked, you see? Jim Cirillo told me that he once shot a man at a range of about 6 ft with an Ithaca pump 12 ga and 00 buck,
and swore that he saw daylight thru the man's chest. The guy turned and ran! Jim was so astonished that he tried to shoot the man in the back,
without first working the pump. He got it reloaded and shot the fleeing armed robber in the back, at 5 yds or so, the pattern was about 6" wide, and
the man KEPT ON RUNNING! Jim said that it was like being in a nightmare. He again shot the man, thru the glass door of the Harlem liquor store, and
the man (on his knees from a .38 lrn hit to his hipbone, rolled over, came back up on his knees, said "hey man, that's enough", and died in the
ambulance on the way to the hospital. Other than a lucky hit to the spine, there is nothing in the chest that, if destroyed, stops the body within 5
seconds or less, other than by pain/shock making the man's will to fight disappear.
