they were too dumb to know I wasn't fighting them..I dint know where I was. Now half my left hand is TOTALLY NUMB! I am a carpenter. Everyone says "sue the b**stards, but if I DO, one of them has a brother who works for my company.
If I DON'T sue...I could lose everything! What should I do?

P.S. - This happened at my house...AFTER work hours...so workmen's comp is out of the question. I'd have to go after the cops themselves and one of them has a brother who works for my company! Dammit!

Okay, since this happened at your house then I am going to change my answer. What you need to do is go see a doctor first and get his opinion on what happen to you and how he can help you heal. Then get a lawyer and ask if you have a case. Which no doubt you do. They would have to pay the lawyer fee, court costs, everthing, if you win.
AND again. I wouldn't care who worked where. You are that one that was injured not someone's brother. You some times just have to do what you have to do.

You cannot sue the cops, its their word against your. They are credible and your not. After all I doubt they raid your house for nothing. They do as they please you are the person suspected of drug or what ever illegal, they are law enforcement legal. If your just a carpenter then I doubt you have the money to sue even if you could.

If I were you, I would go with your lawyer to speak with the police. See if you can settle out of court without suing them. See a doctor and bring any medical details of what happened to you. Hope everything works out!

Sue their asses. If everybody sued the bastards when they use excessive force, they would quit beating the hell out of people. A good carpenter can get another job and if you win, you'll have a lot of money.

start with worker's comp insurance or TDI. then, get some medical treatment and find out if you are crippled permanently or temporarily. if permanent, you have no choice but to sue.
