James Hodges was charged with resisting arrest non-violently.

Normally you can get charges dismissed if it's just "resisting arrest" with nothing else.

Reason: to be resisting arrest, there has to be a lawful arrest in progress first.

Wtf. The only way he could have resisted less is if he handcuffed himself.

The piggies just wanted to dominate him after he asserted his rights. Telling a cop "no" will put them in a frenzy of excited delirium.
