I don't know if you're being serious or not, but some things are time sensitive, and a slow or underpowered response can be fatal.

It's not like the police force gets a kick out of deploying SWAT. Yes, obviously the response needs to be more precise, but hopefully not at the expense of quick response to real emergencies.

I'm actually not quite sure about this, unfortunately....

An overpowered response at the expense of innocent lives are not in any way better. It's actually worse, since the people responsible for the killings don't face the consequences like everyone else.

Agreed

And so can a hasty, under-/mis-informed, and/or overpowered response.
