That was OP's point. That doesn't happen in a lot of countries Western Europe or East Asia, e.g. Japan. You should be detained, not injured by police acting as their own judge, jury and executioners (Or teeth knocker-outers)
Edit: I should have made it clear I meant that it doesn't happen in a lot of countries with a similar socioeconomic situation to the US. Sure if you want to count war-torn countries, countries with dictators or violent regimes then yeah, it does happen in a lot of other countries. Kind of sad we have to compare American policing to those places though, right?
Not just policing. The US is falling behind all other 'first world' countries in education, wages, growth, and many other ways. It is more comparable to a well-off nation in South America than to any of the top European nations.
Really? I currently reside in the US, and have for about 37 years. I believe that's a long enough time to make an educated comment about this nation. Also, Western Europe is leagues ahead of the US. You should be ashamed of the state of your nation.

I would like for the cop to grab my arm and restrain me so I wouldn't be able to hit them again.
I would expect to get some teeth knocked out.
