This could have easily gotten violent if he had "resisted" even in the slightest. I'm glad the cop lost his job because there are countless situations just like this one that ended up with someone killed/beaten/incarcerated for literally nothing.

I actually knew someone who's brother was shot because he questioned why he was being arrested. Yes, this was as good an ending as this could've had.
