Let's assume that everything you say is true. What are the normal consequences for such rule violations? You get your pool pass taken away for the summer? I assume that you realize that had not one cop lost control of himself, this would have been a non-incident? Short of that cop's behavior, the crowd would have been dispersed peacefully, no videos would have been circulated, and nobody would have been put on administrative leave or lost their jobs. You can try to shift blame as much as you want, but this entire incident is the result of one cop getting out of control.
We're that true, the security guard would have handled it without need for police
How so? Under normal circumstances, the police show up, the kids leave, life goes on. What was different this time? One out-of-control cop.
Police breaking up teenage parties is a pretty common occurrence.
Tackling them and arresting them when they run is pretty common too.
In my experience, that is pretty uncommon. Were you ever at parties broken up by the police? Did any kids ever get tackled?
Montgomery County Maryland, Potomac/Rockville/Gaithersburg.... don't run, just take your citation and let your parents pick you up.
Okay, but just to be clear, do you have personal experience of police breaking up a teenage party and then tackling the kids "for running away" after they had been told to leave and were, in fact, leaving?

Not a expert in criminal law in TX but trespassing is a Class A/B/C misdemeanor. The worst being <$4000 fine and up to 1 year in jail, the lesser being up to a $500 fine.
I am not sure if the "whole incident" is because a cop got out of control, the "whole incident" was a badly planned party, kids probably would have been arrested for trespassing if there was no video but all the kids were let go because of the video. The kids should probably thank the police officer for getting out of control, because the department had to "clean it up" by letting the kids go.

So is cursing at police and defying their every order-it's the "Didn't do nothing" defense (or excuse).

The opposite of "peaceful" is "violently", not "quietly".

The police would never have been called if the 110 kids who were over the allowed limit were not there to begin with, did not behave badly, and left when the security guard asked them to. The cop may have been wrong, but so was the homeowner and these kids. There are 2 sides to every story.
Yet they did not disperse peacefully, or at all-even with the cop "inappropriately" ordering them to do so.
I disagree. They were dispersing peacefully. How obtuse can you be to suggest that the "inappropriate" action of the police officer was to order them to leave? Had the one officer acted like the other 11 officers, we would have never heard about this.
