So, right there, it's not legal for someone to walk up on someone else while holding a shotgun and tell them to halt...freeze.

A citizens arrest is completely legal in the state of Georgia. Lethal force is warranted in situations where self-defense comes into play.

But he says "...lawfully" at the end of every post?

Let’s circle back on this issue once it goes to court. I will humbly bend the knee if I am wrong… But I don’t think I’m wrong.

But why?

We know they didn't meet the standards of a lawful citizens arrest. They admit this.

So why do you think they walk?


Their whole credibility is shot to shite anyway once the prosecution compares their statements to the police contrasted with the video. The jury won't believe a word they say. They lied to the cops already, why believe anything else they say about the incident?

Very different. They’re not fricking cops

[img]Citizen's Arrests As a private citizen, you have no authority to arrest anyone with a warrant. Without a warrant, you may arrest anyone who commits a mis-demeanor or a felony in your presence or with your immediate knowledge. A citizen's arrest occurs when a citizen prevents a suspect from leaving a scene. Citizen's arrest most often happens in cases like shoplifting, when the store's manager detains the suspected offender. However, as the following example shows, the manager or employee cannot make such an arrest in every case. In Winn Dixie Stores Inc. v. Nichols, 205 Ga. App. 308, 422 S.E. 2d 209 (1992), a Winn Dixie customer complained to management that another customer stole her wallet. The court held that the limited rights of merchants to detain or arrest a person reasonably believed to have committed a shoplifting offense do not authorize a merchant to detain or arrest individuals accused by store patrons of committing crimes against other patrons. To make the arrest, an employee would have had to actually see the criminal act committed. Therefore, it was ruled that management had no authority to arrest the alleged criminal.The court suggested that the only person who could have made the citizen's arrest was the robbed customer herself. When making a citizen's arrest, a person may not use more force than is reasonable to make the arrest. Deadly force is limited to self-defense or to instances in which such force is necessary to prevent certain felonies.[/img]

The yellow one on the left is what RTR, Mouton, and BLM are protesting against! But you guys do the whole “race” thingy.

That’s not the same thing… They witnessed him illegally entering a dwelling. Management at Winn-Dixie took the word of a shopper that she was robbed. Apples and oranges.
