re: Verdict reached in Arbery trial

This is a sentence by itself. It means something. You don’t want to even read it, you dumb fricking count.

You see someone (in your presence) steal a pack of gum. You can perform a citizen's arrest.

You see someone steal an expensive TV, its value is enough to make that theft a felony. You can attempt a citizen's arrest because it occurred in your presence.

Why would the law also require "reasonable and probably suspicion" on top of "in your presence/immediate knowledge" for a felony? That's a step down. There's a reason why there's a step down once the offense is a felony... You just don't like the reason.

That argument sounds about as stupid as you. So no surprise there.
