2. The excessive use of force is interesting:

Held: The application of physical force to the body of a person with intent to restrain is a seizure even if the person does not submit and is not subdued. Pp. 3–18. (a) The Fourth Amendment protects “[t]he right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreason-able searches and seizures.” This Court’s precedents have interpretedthe term “seizure” by consulting the common law of arrest, the “quin-tessential” seizure of the person. Payton v. New York, 445 U. S. 573, 585; California v. Hodari D., 499 U. S. 621, 624. In Hodari D., this Court explained that the common law considered the application of physical force to the body of a person with the intent to restrain to be an arrest—not an attempted arrest—even if the person does not yield

I wonder how this is going to be applied in the future.
