Indicator sentences: Can you define "resisting arrest" for me here?
Negotiation parts: For example, [this woman](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qhzdxYnwhg) was arrested for resisting arrest because she was providing legal counsel to her client and wouldn't step away when the cops asked her to. If one of the officers had shot her, do you think they would be deserving of criminal punishment? I wouldn't consider that video to be an example of resisting arrest. The officer commanded the woman to turn around and put her hands behind her back, and she did so. I think the definition of "resisting arrest" can differ per state. But for the purposes of this discussion I see it as using physical force to resist an officer placing you under arrest.
Trigger words: criminal
Indicator sentences: That's a really good point, but I'm not totally clear on the definition of what a "criminal" is.
Negotiation parts: I think technically speaking it is just anyone who has ever been convicted of a crime. But it seems silly to think that some old lady who committed a crime 50 years ago is technically a criminal. I wonder if there is a statute of limitations on such things.

Indicator sentences: Just what do you mean by "resisting arrest"?
Negotiation parts: The dictionary defines it as: "the crime of using physical force (no matter how slight in the eyes of most law enforcement officers) to prevent arrest, handcuffing and/or taking the accused to jail. It is also called "resisting an officer" (but that can include interfering with a peace officer's attempt to keep the peace) and is sometimes referred to merely as "resisting."' resisting arrest can be squirming away from handcuffs, running away, etc. there doesn't have to be any danger to the officer for it to be considered resisting.

Indicator sentences: Your entire post doesn't clearly define what you call "Resisting Arrest", and I think that's the core of the issue.
