Default Re: Unlawful Arrest

imho, you should be allowed to resist an unlawful arrest with whatever force is required to resist it. otherwise, you are basically being legally required to allow yourself to be kidnapped.

BUT...

if you resist a lawful arrest, the consequences should be severe.

so, you better be absolutely certain that the arrest is unlawful before resisting...because, if it turns out the arrest is not unlawful you are going to prison for awhile.
