No, yours is.
The "arrest" definition you highlighted has nothing to do with police activity. It even gave you an example in a sentence, for God's sake.
Clearly, the definition in question here is the first one, to seize and take into legal custody.
quote:
when an officer tries to stop and/or check you and you resist, you are resisting arrest
Nope. The definition to stop or check (progress or a process) doesn't mean stop like a traffic stop or check like check someone for weapons. Again, it gave you a fricking example, as in to arrest the spread of a disease. That "stop or check" definition has absolutely nothing to do with the kind of "arrest" that it is illegal to resist.

La. R.S. 14:108 Resisting an officer
quote:
Resisting an officer is the intentional interference with, opposition or resistance to, or obstruction of an individual acting in his official capacity and authorized by law to make a lawful arrest, lawful detention, or seizure of property or to serve any lawful process or court order when the offender knows or has reason to know that the person arresting, detaining, seizing property, or serving process is acting in his official capacity.
Nothing about arguing here, but there's more clarification...
quote:
The phrase "obstruction of" as used herein shall, in addition to its common meaning, signification, and connotation mean the following:
(a) Flight by one sought to be arrested before the arresting officer can restrain him and after notice is given that he is under arrest.
(b) Any violence toward or any resistance or opposition to the arresting officer after the arrested party is actually placed under arrest and before he is incarcerated in jail.
(c) Refusal by the arrested or detained party to give his name and make his identity known to the arresting or detaining officer or providing false information regarding the identity of such party to the officer.
(d) Congregation with others on a public street and refusal to move on when ordered by the officer.
Nothing about arguing or asking if you are under arrest or not obeying every ridiculous command.
Right to resist an unlawful arrest

Louisiana, like most of the states in this country, recognizes the right to resist an unlawful arrest

If you ever have a free afternoon or night, go do a ride-along with a cop in the inner city.
After the 1st hour, you will want to shoot people, and will fully understand how some can go over board.
Every pull over has to be an issue, it's always because of their color, not the fact that dudes plates are from 2005(in 2010), and the rear end of car is scraping because of an accident, where he hit some one and took off.
It's always because of their color, there is never a legit reason to pull them over.
I did one in St.Louis and in Florida(drove around city of Cocoa)

People often "resist" arrest simply by asking why they are being detained.
