I may be mistaken but in almost 100% of these encounters with police that end badly there seems to always have been some element of resisting arrest and it escalates from there. I for one think the penalties for resisting arrest, assaulting an officer, failure to stop (in most cases), and interfering with an officer should be automatic and substantial if proven. Watching these peaceful (sarcasm) protests for 3 month and seeing the abuse law enforcement is subjected to and takes amazes this old grandfather.
