In much of the US if you continually refuse to comply the authorities it will very likely, at some point eventually, escalate to the point where a loaded gun is aimed at you. For civil issues it might take a long time, but at some point you'll probably be in contempt of court and if you then refuse to be arrested, the guns might come out.

When people say the government has a monopoly on violence, this is what they mean. Eventually, violence will be used to ensure compliance. Most people comply before that happens, under threat of it.
