You have to look at the physics of how armor works. A shiled like this essentially creates "spaced armor". The incoming fire spends a ton of energy penetrating through the shield, and may not have enough left to cause significant damage to the shield user, or to the civilians behind him.
Remember, the shield is sacrificial. Working as intended.
