take an example - some perp takes a swing at a police officer during the arrest, he's cuffed and restrained now, you don't think the cop might have the dog take a little nip out of him for resisting arrest, even after he is cuffed? It likely happens every day in this country.

It does...not!

You have no idea how big city police forces work, apparently. Yes, there's plenty of force used in subduing a fleeing suspect who's resisting arrest, but, once he's in custody, officers better restrain themselves, or Internal Affairs will have their asses!

One never knows whether a video camera might be trained on the arrest (and that video camera might even be in one of the patrol cars).
