Take the recent Montreal situation as an example. Nobody died in what was probably a much more dangerous situation. From the armchair quarterback point of view anyway...
Again they had no way of knowing if there was an immediate threat on board. For all they knew someone else could have been on that bus severely injured by this guy. They had to treat it as a worst case scenario because of the data available to them at the time. If he had cooperated with police he would still be alive, end of story.
