You forgot the sarcasm switch, didn't you?

The Sheriff's point is arguable. You witness a man beating a women over the head with a pipe in the street. You overpower the man and hold him until you make a 911 call and the police arrive.

Unlawful imprisonment?

Similar situation:

Store owner apprehends shoplifters and holds them at bay with a .357 Magnum until police arrives.

Unlawful imprisonment?

Sorry. If the police can't do the job, a well regulated militia can. The state doesn't have a case.

Beating a woman with a pipe is a felony. Crossing a border without a visa is usually a misdemeanor. We don't allow people to commit felonies upon those who commit misdemeanors. It's really a simple concept of justice.
