I understand resisting arrest will likely make things worse if in an altercation with the cops, but I wonder what simply using BJJ etc to ESCAPE from that situation, get free and make distance would cause
I'm not sure I could allow a cop to manhandle me like that, if I knew I could escape.
Of course then backup would all draw guns and come after you
Tough calls man
If it's true this is over a skateboard citation that's fucked up. Will keep an eye out for updates to the story.
I also wonder if I were to see unjust police brutality like this (saw another vid that went around recently where US cops were cuffing and tazing a 9-year old girl) if I could resist jumping in to help them. I know the consequences of fighting cops but there is something unhuman about standing and watching that shit and not doing anything about it.
These things trouble me, I know I have a driving instinct to resist cops but have so far (at least since my kids were born lol) managed to avoid situations where this trait in me could cause me problems.
