The cop who was shot and killed today was a fully trained police officer with a firearm and he still got shot dead. Having a firearm doesn't mean you'll be protected, able to get the first shot off, or that you'll even see it coming.

Police would stop carrying guns if they were as ineffective as you claim. Nobody is saying that having a gun means you're 100% protected. That is a ridiculous statement. Having a gun will not prevent some nut from sneaking up from behind and popping you in the head. Yes, that is true.
However, in other situations having one will give you a better chance against an attacker than mere fisticuffs alone. I think the average cop would agree with that, otherwise they would proceed to hand over their useless firearms.
