This can be sorted out afterward. There's plenty of venues people can resort to if they feel they've been the victims of police abuse. The ACLU or other legal options can be pursued. They would love to jump on shit like that. Why put yourself in a situation that's either going to get you seriously wounded or killed?
I think part of the problem is that police just expect you to do whatever they tell you to do, even if they have no legal right to do it. Is it legal to attack a guy for selling taxless cigs, and not immediately getting in the car when asked? Should it be? Or attacking people for not handing over information on demand? There are boundaries that should be in place. The police don't seem to be aware of it.
