This argument needs to end.

I know you believe it but it's simply not true.

The physics tell us otherwise, experiments confirm the math and real life confirms the experiments.

Watch this video

The guy gets shot, point-blank, in the chest, by a 7.62x51 (basically a .308), while standing on one foot.

Arguing that bullets knock people down is like arguing that the earth is flat and the moon is made of cheese.

It's simply not true. Arguing that it is true has long ago crossed into the realm of silliness.
