According to the Supreme Court, yes, you can, if the arrest was illegal. But would such a case ever get to trial before the other cops kill you, and would they not kill you if a court thought you were justified?

Yo, do you remember the name of the case? I want to read up on this.

Bad Elk v. United States, however, upon further reading, this has been all but overturned by pretty much every state during the backlash against the Civil Rights Movement, under the reason that you should sue if you’re unlawfully arrested. But then qualified immunity happened. So I retract my statement. Cops can do whatever they want to you and you have no legal recourse. The only way any cop will receive any punishment is if enough media attention is given to that case.

And you have to have global protests which involve burning down several police stations in order for then to consider convicting even a single one.

The law in certain states is that you can

In practice however, it’s very much a death wish unless you have a plan to take down every single cop ever
