The idea that she should even TRY is contemptible.No one said that, and I think you will be hard-pressed to find anyone who will say that.

I would find that infinitely preferable to my best friend standing in front of a room full of people in dark suits, telling everybody what a great guy I WAS. And I don't have anybody ELSE to protect.You are, of course, entitled to your opinion but personally, I would not want to be touching of 12-gauge loads of buckshot in a thin-walled apartment.
"An issue that must be addressed is the fear of over penetration...The concern that a bullet would pass through a subject and injure an innocent bystander is clearly exaggerated. A review of law enforcement shootings will reveal that the great majority of shots fired by officers do not hit any subjects at all. It should be obvious that the relatively few shots that do hit a subject are not somehow more dangerous to bystanders than the shots that miss a subject entirely.
"...No law enforcement officer has lost his life because a bullet over penetrated his adversary, and virtually none have ever been sued because a bullet hit an innocent bystander through an adversary. On the other hand, tragically large numbers of officers have been killed because their bullets did not penetrate deeply enough."
I guess they never talked to NYPD or the NY Transit Authority
True, but then we should all use .22 pistols and bird shot right? I always plan on the BG not stopping unless he physically cannot continue. Whether it's with a firearm or a knife or H2H, I plan on having to break him sufficiently that he can't continue whether he wants to or not. That takes the subjectivity out of it.By far the, VAST majority of people who get shot run away as fast as they can OR just fall down and scream.
