Google some instances where criminals have attempted to or have gotten an LEO's weapon.

If a desperate criminal is willing to jump on a cop for his/her weapon what makes you think he wouldn't jump on a non LEO citizen.

Here's a scenario to think about. You and I are standing next to each other, you are CC'ing, I'm OC'ing. A couple desperate BG's want a gun real bad, who are they going to jump on.

Saying "IT DOESN'T HAPPEN" is just not a wise assumption to make.
