Because when police are around regular folks aren't supposed to intervene unless asked by someone with a badge. That covers civilians.
As for the asinine assumption that "they had guns they could have stopped him" there is a reason armies avoid city fighting if possible. It's very hard to root out a shooter settled in and hiding within an urban environment.

Thank you. Someone that finally gets it. Yes, carrying a gun on you at all times is asinine. I understand you don't realize what you just said but it works for me!!!

Trying to twist words just makes you look pedantic.
Didn't I offer you a discussion with a rape victim. Come on. Put up or shut up. Come to NY and tell a rape victim that them not having a firearm, as per laws you support, so her 99% chance to stop rape with a 0.1% chance of injury should be put aside for a 69% Chance to stop rape with a 40% chance of injury for "public safety concerns". Go ahead.

Carrying a gun is like wearing a seat belt, you may never need it and when you do there is no guarantee it will save your life. That's no reason not to wear one.
