During my EMT certification, I too was surprised to learn the safety priorities in the field: The first priority is yourself, second the bystanders and third the victims. It sounds backwards, but it makes sense: If you go rushing in and get hurt, the very unit designed to help just becomes more casualties. I realize this is different from SWAT operations, but the basic principle applies: They need so much information before any action is to be made. Believe me, I bet they were just as frustrated that they could not end the situation quickly and safely.
