The police can't just shoot someone just because the person is a nuisance and won't give up so easily.

Another disclaimer: It is probably the case that the situation in the Osama situation was a lot more hostile and dangerous than that. The military did a lot of research but we don't know whether they knew who was going to be present, who had weapons, and how deadly everything would be.
Oh for god's sake, it was hyperbole. Anyways, a military operation with SEAL Team 6 is a lot different than any police operation that I feel like you are talking about.
