“Citizens may resist unlawful arrest to the point of taking
an arresting officer’s life if necessary.” Plummer v. State, 136 Ind. 306. This
premise was upheld by the Supreme Court of the United States in the case: John
Bad Elk v. U.S., 177 U.S. 529

“One may come to the aid of another being unlawfully arrested, just as he may
where one is being assaulted, molested, raped or kidnapped. Thus it is not an
offense to liberate one from the unlawful custody of an officer, even though he
may have submitted to such custody, without resistance.” (Adams v. State, 121 Ga. 16, 48 S.E. 910).


All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
