In reading through this thread, one thing suddenly strikes me. I was on a jury recently for something bad, a murder case, and one of the things that the law really punishes is escalation of a situation. For both sides, it's a really good idea to de-escalate and a really bad idea to escalate. We should all always keep that in mind. It's a good philosophy in general and it can get you out of legal problems.

Tyreek cause the initial escalation when he was speeding, and then escalated again by rolling his window up, and then escalated again by complaining about the window and not sitting down when told, etc. You fight that battle later if you need to.

The second cop escalated by dragging him out of the car and dragging him down on the pavement. The cop may have a legal right to do so if the citizen is being non-compliant, but it's obvious that the cop had an attitude. He was escalating by insulting Tyreek about crying and by generally being a jerk.
