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?

It is impossible to know the underlying motivations for each individual interaction between police and civilians, so it is unfair to make assumptions. Police brutality is a complex issue that must be investigated on a case-by-case basis. Certainly, many incidents of police misconduct can be avoided if civilians follow the orders of police officers, but there are instances when force has been used unnecessarily and excessively that has nothing to do with resistance or failure to comply. It is also important to keep in mind that many instances of police brutality are motivated by biased perceptions and stereotypes of race, gender, and class.
