The default response to "Stop resisting" should be allowed to be "Stop oppressing me".
Seriously, I am so freaking tired of all police activity in the US - they are actually ruining our country.
I would love for John Oliver to do a piece on "What if all mexicans disappeared in a mexican rapture from the US" -- showing how the entire country would grind to a halt if every mexican vanished. The point being that much of the invisible social mortar on how the US economy functions is work by mexican labor (cleaning, cooking, building, etc).
Compare that to the argument that mexicans are taking jobs/ruining the country... I think the US police force in aggregate does more harm to the nation than do "illegal mexican immigrants".
Further, if all cops were held to the same standards (there should be a national standard of laws and a central, citizen based, "internal affairs" that looks into every police matter, the world would be a better place (TM).
