essentially. you can tell in 98% of cases when someone is just instinctively reacting vs. when they're actually trying to plot an escape and/or injure people. cops should be trained to a) be physically fit enough to catch somebody who is running and b) to actually have an understanding of how to read a situation (this in conjunction with the fact that most arrests shouldn't happen in the first place and should be treated differently)

it's absolutely ridiculous to expect citizens to remain totally calm and placid at gunpoint when cops can't even do the same not at gunpoint

so magic wand, cops are now physically fit and can read a situation
guy resists, he runs, they catch him and tell him again that he's arrested and he's not down for that? what then?
