someone armed in a bank thinking they can stop "threat" puts too many lives at jeopardy. I don't think bank robbers go in there looking to shoot unprovoked.

I agree. As someone not carrying a gun in a hypothetical bank that allows guns, if I'm in there during a robbery I certainly don't want some jackass pulling his piece and starting a firefight around me when they could just as easily let it go without anyone getting shot.

Well whose money do they want, mine or the bank's? If it's the bank's, go for it. If they rob every customer inside, there is a potential hostage situation and using force seems more reasonable than putting all faith into the criminal's trigger finger.

Again, many of you CC and know you would try to use your best judgment before firing away. Does that mean you would in the heat of the moment? Maybe, maybe not. But being armed gives you options. Being unarmed gives you 0 options.
