		 Maybe Swimmer can clear up one point for me.  
 
I'm not anti police in any way. My next door neighbor , who was a police officer all the time I knew him , essentially taught me 'serious" fishing.   
My question...  
Shouldn't the officers say "You are under arrest" before trying to get physical?   
 I just don't think the person is resisting arrest if he hasn't been placed under arrest.   
 
I guess In this case i would look for 
 
1.  the officer walks up and tells the guy to leave the mic.  if he refuses , the officer says leave or you will be arrested for tresspassing 9or disturbing the peace or whatever).  If he still refusses , the officer says you are under arrest and then grabs him to escort him out.  If he then fights , he's resisting arrest. 
 
 
i just don't understand why they simply start ganging up on him when no one has placed him under arrest.  He even asks "Am I under arrest?"  No weapon , no violence to that point.   
 
This part i don't get.  Please enlighten us.
