Comments[edit]

  • Nicely cited.
  • "...discuss the issue as defense against unlawful force, and most also note that a person may not use force to resist an unlawful arrest." Shouldn't most become must?
  • The article states that in 1999, "sixteen states had eliminated the right to resist unlawful arrest..." Is there a more recent version?
    • Same thing with this line. "By 1999, twenty-three states had eliminated the right to resist unlawful arrest by statute."

 Done Clarified most to show that it meant "most of the cases" citing Bad Elk.

 Done.

Verdict[edit]

  • On Hold I'll put it on hold for a week. Seeing as you've retired, I might put it on hold for a bit longer. Great article, by the way. buffbills7701 21:46, 3 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]
