I see three or four officers with guns pointed at a suspect and him walking away from them with his hands up in the air.

I'm sorry but... The moment a police officer pulls their firearm and pulls it on you, you risk getting shot. If a police officer has their firearm pointed at you and you fail to obey that police officer, you risk getting shot. If a police officers has their firearm pointed at you and you fail to obey that officer and instead walk back to your car, you risk getting shot.
The moment a police officer pulls their firearm out, your world stops and you had better obey them. This man didn't.
I got pulled over in a full felony stop once; I knew I had done nothing wrong and I knew the police officers were in the wrong. But I knew at that exact moment none of that mattered, and that for the next sixty seconds I was going to have to grin and bare it and do what I was told to do. I ate some gravel and it was less then pleasant. That is the ONLY way to handle that situation. Any other way, and you risk getting shot.
