yes, and everyone should do good and avoid evil. It's a nice adage but it doesn't really mean anything until its applied. In this application of intervention, it accomplished nothing but getting a young man shot and another young man in jail awaiting charges and a trial. The statue was removed by the Mayor.
The intervention was a complete clusterfuck. That is not good and that is not smarter.
I've personally engaged in multiple citizens arrests including some that required force to detain and deliver suspects of crime into Seattle Police custody.
Best is the confidence to act AND the knowledge to know the legal boundaries.
