With due respect to Neal Boortz, he doesn’t know his ass from a hole in the ground. You don’t have to ACTUALLY SEE a felony to make a citizen arrest. If that was the standard for probable cause, the cops couldn’t make arrests in 90% of cases because they didn’t see the, for instance, back robbery. You can either see a felony or it is within your knowledge.

Just because you see a felony, doesn't mean you can belligerently threaten someone with a gun.

Are you going to go "citizens arrest" all the people at lockdown protests and people not wearing a mask?

That's the rule for citizen's arrest, not when the police arrest someone. You are conflating the two.
