How many of these situations come up in a police officers life?
I have never been in a situation where having a gun could have "controlled" the situation and don't know anyone who has either. Are off duty police officers more likely to find themselves in these situations then me?

Ah...there are plain cloths officers on the beat every day that do the exact same thing and we don't see problems with that do we?
Everyone of of us has seen crimes being committed. If you haven't...then you need some more life experience. You haven't been in a situation where a gun was needed because you have never approached someone to try and stop a crime from being committed or tried to arrest someone for committing a crime. There is where the situation becomes dangerous.
