The gas that the Russians use isn’t instantaneous and you have to have specific containment. In addition, there is no chance the Police Department even has it and the intelligence/military community aren’t going give it to them for a lone gunman.
More than likely they determined by then that he was the lone shooter and there was no way they were going to put more police lives in danger to take him alive. They may also have made the determination that he was psychotic and did know that he had meth in his apartment and was probably still on it. In addition, they thought he had another explosive device and since the found the materials at his apartment, nobody was going to get close to him and they couldn’t risk it going off. There were no other options.

That is the default. Maybe not the right decision but I think folks down here prefer action over inaction. Talking past a few hours is likely to be considered inaction.
