I'm new to reloading and was looking over some range brass (45acp) and noticed dents and scratches on them.  I tried to resize to see if the dents would go away but they didn't. 

Should all dents and scratches be discarded and tossed in the trash or what is considered acceptable without causing a potential hazard.  Are there pictures available?

 

Dents, scratches, etc are normally encountered on semi-auto cases, from extraction and ejection. The size die and expander funnel correct anything correctable. If the brass smashes, throw it away. Otherwise, these dies will correct any dimensional issues.
