You're changing the goal posts to redefine "arrests." To arrest someone is to enforce the law. You can be peaceably arrested, unless you resist arrest, which is further violating the criminal code.

By this logic if I go to a bank with a gun and say, "give me all your money" and they comply without a fight it's not violent? Edit: plus my first comment described a peaceful arrest, not someone resisting.
