There is never a situation in which being unarmed is better.

The situation described is probably one in which the victims were better off unarmed. They did not have the situational awareness (apparently) to avoid the situation. Attempting to draw a CCW on apparently multiple BGs that already had them covered with their own weapons would be near suicide. Sometimes, when you're that far behind the reactionary curve the safest thing to do is stay there, until it's safe to make a move. If the BG are physically searching you and have you covered with their own weapons, how exactly are you going to draw without being shot? Hoping that they do not intend to kill you is NOT NOT a great option, but it's better than MAKING THEM kill you.
The best thing is to stay aware and stay ahead of the curve. Barring those two, you're left with a series of bad options and the hope that you can recover the advantage.
After all, what we're after is going home safe and sound, not bringin' down the hammer on the BG's that have the NERVE to mug ME.
