L-pink's post goes right to the key point of the event and bigger issue,
how do we fix the problem of people resisting arrest and how do we fix the problem of cops over-reacting when they do.
the problem really does incorporate both components and an effective solution must also. we're all better served by trying to realize the overall problem, or else there won't be an overall solution.
for me, i would tackle that by first addressing the cop part of the problem, cops need better training overall on how to handle someone resisting, only after that starts to show results, i think first, people would calm the fuck down when interacting with the police and it would also allow for better understanding and dealing with why people resist to the point the officer goes bezerk and fires 8 shots through a public park.
