They just gathered the biggest group possible to kill Zero. That they had at least a dozen Knightmares on standby shows they weren't merely taking precautions. They just wanted him dead.

If i recall they didn't shoot the instant he showed up and did give Kallen a chance to choose to stand there or move out of the way and let them shoot; they were prepared to kill her too but they didn't want to have to, but the geass did not make capture a strong option considering the geass; considering how many lives zero is responsible for loosing a death sentence was obvious and no one can stand in the way of that... hell in a sense they actually did give Zero a chance to speak before they shot him but he chose his last words not to be a denial but an admission of his guilt... in one fell swoop he removed any remaining doubt they may have had
not to mention, considering how Zero DID escape from that situation, it sounds like they didn't take enough precautions

She'd have to erase every hard drive, take care of every scientist, and destroy every produced weapon. It isn't in her power to do so. As for Geass, the Sword of Akasha still exists, as do the Thought Elevators and everything else. All Lelouch did was wipe out civilians in the larger scheme of things, though a number were dangerous Geass users.

As for the Geass, the sword of Akasha and so forth are still around but the research about them has been successfully destroyed... those researchers were working on the geass, soldiers like Rolo and Jeremiah were some of the results of that research. With all of that data destroyed it will be many years before you see another Jeremiah as they would have to start all the research over again... the geass may still be around, but all the research is long gone
With the power of "plot" it is not unimaginable for Nina to be able to erase all of the data... hell, plot was the reason why they never made copies of the geass data and thus lead to all be destoryed in a single attack... it wouldn't be hard to them to say that they limited copying the WMD data; afterall, the fewer copies there are of the data the less likely it can be stolen by an enemy spy/hacker... She may not need to kill the scientists as they do not have the data committed to memory; erasing the data would still mean it would take months for them to recreate what she made... and who's to say for certain they could reverse engineer the other remaining bombs... hell she could just set off a bomb in the same ship they did in all the research and wipe out almost everything in one blow, including any scientist that might be able to recreate the bomb based off any remaining bombs... many ways to explain how to do this with a little help from plot

The terrorists before Zero were a nuisance, and that's what they would become again. They would have been effectively eliminated, because the resistance Zero mounted was so above anything they could comprehend that it took something that drastic to destroy it.

The terrorist before zero were not a problem but a group like the japan liberation front was causing quite a bit of trouble; it took years for them to finally pin them down at that mountain... one of the major reasons the terrorist were not much of a threat is because they had barely anything to fight with... one of the major turning points was when they started getting access to knightmares, even Zero wouldn't have been able to do much without knightmares... the terrorists would be a nuisance at first, but that's only until the black market starts providing them with real weapons and/or when the terrorists start to act in very large numbers (such as massive riots and such)
