I can tell you right now I did NOT deserve to be treated the way I was. When they stripped us down, in a line with everyone I can totally relate to these Iraqi Prisoner Photos! They made us strip to humilate us in front of the cells of other guys.
I was in college at the time and the cop was pushing me by the shoulders, almost DARING me to swing, saying that I was just a punk and that I shouldnt be "downtown" at this time of night.
We were walking down an alley downtown new orleans, next thing I know we were hand cuffed and being told we were fighting and causing problems, and that we were going to jail.
We were NOT FIGHTING, i was with 3 of my BEST FRIENDS, childhood friends even.
70% chance the guy DID NOT deserve it.
I know the people that drove by and saw the cops standing over us probably said the same thing, and just as they were wrong, you are WRONG today.
i cant stand people who choose the side of the cops over the people.
I PAY THEIR FUCKING SALARY. not the other way around

Obviously your story is one sided. Im not saying its IMPOSSIBLE that the cop was in the wrong in this case or in yours. But 99% of the time they do what they do for a reason. They have better things to do then screw around with some "punks" walking down an alley. Your attitude in this thread alone makes me think that you DID resist and thats why you got treated poorly. But obviously we'll never have the entire unbiased story.
