I noticed the lack of links, but what you've posted here is what defines a violent crime, not what you stated before, an arrest warrant defines someone as a violent criminal. You used this logic to justify police violence, but have not shown where in law an arrest warrant redefines a person as a violent criminal.
When a person commits multiple violent crimes, is arrested for those crimes, is convicted for those crimes, is sent to prison for those crimes, serves 1/3 of their sentence and is released on parole ... are they a violent criminal under the law? In general no. They are probably still “violent” because a leopard does not change its spots, but until and unless they break the law and suffer due process, that violence does not make them a criminal.
If that exact same individual fails to maintain contact with his parole officer and does not attend the court ordered anger management classes that were a condition of his parole, so the court revokes his parole and issues a ... wait for it ... warrant for his arrest, is he now a violent criminal? In general, yes.
QED.
The police did not make him a violent criminal, but the arrest warrant made him a violent criminal being sought by the police.
1. Committing a violent crime makes you a violent criminal, and the COURT, not the POLICE issue the warrant for arrest that determines when the police are attempting to arrest a "violent criminal". The example that I gave to illustrate the point (which you conveniently ignored) was a man convicted of a violent crime ... making him a violent criminal ... released on parole ... making him a violent non-criminal ... having a warrant issued for parole violation ... placing the police in the position of searching for a "violent criminal".
A "violent criminal" is a criminal that has committed a "violent crime".
You win. I have explained it to you until I am blue in the face, but you are incapable of understanding it.
