In the US, the vast majority of police encounters with people carrying firearms is peaceful. Police will give instruction to suspects, and may shoot them if they aren't followed.

That's one of the reasons this country needs an official language. If there is no agreed upon language, then it isn't reasonable to expect a person to follow orders when their life is on the line.

Aviation safety is maintained by an agreed upon language, similarly an agreed upon language is necessary for the safety of citizens.
