If they screw up bad enough you might get a nice big payday (don't forget to pay your lawyer and Uncle Sam) but if they do some permanent damage to you whilst you are "resisting arrest" it might not pay the medical bills. Oh, don't we love America the beautiful? You know, that’s really the only bright spot in this whole disgusting picture.

It’s like police can just walk up to anybody and arrest them for no reason at all and if they resist, then they’re charged with resisting arrest."</i> But I think that they can and do. We have very few rights when it comes right down to it. On the up-side, when will you be filing your civil suit? “It never fails to boggle my mind how people can get arrested for resisting and evading arrest without an initial charge that justifies the arrest.
