@GuntherEagleman Active resistance, According to the force continuum, justified from what little you can see. What they don't tell you is you have to know what thoughts are going through the officer's mind at that very instant.
@FightBell@Flora13fc318 I'd have a hard time defending the officer that started punching, with cuffs in his hand. With the force continuum you can go a step above the type of resistance.
