re: Check out this video of UGA student getting arrested

That is all true. I think a lot of our divides come from the fact that there are two separate questions going on:

Question one-Is it smart to be disrespectful to an officer? That answer is almost always NO

Question two-Should a publicly paid state supported government agent conduct themselves in such a violent manner when someone behaves like this student did?
That answer is unquestionably NO

Some are struggling with seeing the two questions. When I say we should have the right to be mouthy to a cop and not get beaten down I am in no way saying it is wise to do so.

Again, there are two separate questions to address.
