[@tonybarker1335]

It's called the Citizen arrest and it is not to be used willy nilly .. law enforcement officers are trained professionals .. use discretion and caution at all times but by all means defend the right to live free of fear in a free republic based on the principles of self government and LAW and ORDER

[@kurt7833]

misdemeanors 999 dollars and under come on man.

[@hunterbidenscrackdealer3753]

I don’t know about most people but if someone took $999 bucks from me I would be in trouble paying my bills… I bet my mortgage company wouldn’t grant me immunity from paying when some shit bag stole that much money from me. Just sayin…

[@bonniegranier2890]

Dont they cases only count as the most violent if theyre actually taken 😅. Like we dropped hundred of murder and armed robbery cases but since they got dropped or not taken up they just dont count as a case anymore because they never made it that far.

[@lindalovatt5799]
