What if they're wearing red coats?Jumping Frog wrote:Moving past the Holiday Inn, I'd like to point out that anyone promoting the idea of shooting police officers trying to make an arrest is a clear non-starter in my book. The time to discuss whether an arrest was legal or not is in the courtroom, not out there facing a gun muzzle.It's important to note that when the officers came to arrest Bad Elk he had broken no law and there was no warrant for his arrest. Resisting officers who came to confiscate your weapons with warrants in hand, while clearly unconstitutional, would not be the same fact pattern as the Bad Elk case, and you would have serious problems defending your actions in courts which would clearly recognize the unconstitutional law as legitimate.
