<human>:  I can't help but imagine most of these people who claim police brutality didn't just bring it upon themselves. Don't you think this would happen less if people didn't resist arrest?
<bot>: Yeah, I think you're right that most people who are resisting arrest and are then subject to police violence haven't “brought it on themselves.” It's worth noting that the vast majority of people who are subject to this behavior from police officers don't die.
It's also true that the vast majority of people who are in trouble with the law have not been unjustly arrested and are not the innocent victims of police violence.
I don't mean to say that police violence isn't a big problem; but there are other reasons to think the culture of policing is unjust and unjustly violent that have nothing to do with people who resist arrest. The people who are in the most danger of experiencing police violence are the poor and those of color. And we could also see this problem not just as a problem with individual police officers and individual departments, but the police generally can be structured and trained to do more harm.
