No, it is generally not advisable to use self-defense against police officers, even if they are behaving inappropriately. In most cases, using force against a police officer can lead to serious legal consequences, and may escalate the situation further. If you feel that a police officer is behaving inappropriately or using excessive force, it is important to remain calm and try to communicate your concerns to the officer in a respectful manner. You can ask for their badge number and the name of their supervisor, and make a complaint to the appropriate authorities if necessary.
