Blame it on police and military fetishization. At the end of the day, if you resist authority trying to take your shit illegally, it will come to blows. If you choose to defend yourself against them, you are now very much on the wrong side of the law.

It has to be less illegal to defend yourself from authority if you feel you're in danger.

On a practical level that doesn't seem very viable in a "mountain lion vs housecat" way. Accountability is certainly needed though.
