Why the hell argue ... you put on the Towel ..the cops go away ...
Seemed to be set up for a bait the cops game to me ...
I would have pepper spayed him... much more uncomfortable
First he wasn't arrested for resisting arrest, it would have been failure to comply with a lawful order. The charge after that would be resisting arrest, and if any of the crowd had come after the police he would have been charged with inciting a riot as well. Secondly they should have used pepper spray because regardless of hitting this guys face I am sure a burning sensation in this guys genitalia would have gotten him to want to cover it up. Maybe the cops were worried they weren't that good of marksman.

I think the cops did the right thing. That could have turned real ugly with the amount of people there. They were very patient with him.
