Exactly.
There are clear cases where submitting and doing as you were told still goes south (Daniel Shaver), but the majority of cop encounters, violent or not, would probably go down pretty easy and safe if people stayed calm and non-aggressive.
Well, let's put it this way. Cops have a dangerous job. They have to be a bit on edge in an encounter, or they can end up dead. You, as the person they're stopping to question/search, had better realize this and act as non-aggressive as possible. In fact, smiling sweetly and acting like there's no big deal can lead to them going away thinking they lost pounds of weed and a big big bust, and you get off with the quarter ounce in you had in yer pants. Yep, that is oddly specific, isn't it?
