Illegal detention? Protest, don't fight it, go to jail. After jail, go to court. Sue the crap out of police and city-county-state whichever government body he/she works for.

You can argue with me all day long about your rights, but if I've decided you're being handcuffed, there is no room for debate, it is happening. Period.

Even if the arrest is "illegal" your escape or escape attempt is not. Your screwing around in the back of the car trying to release the cuffs could get you shot.
