This is the justification for the Arbery shooting too. People can argue all day that the father and son shouldn't have driven after him, but Arbery attempted to fight and disarm a man with a gun and ended up on the receiving end.
I agree, but it becomes a very muddy line of whether the suspected criminal believes they committed a criminal act. Otherwise it is just some armed dudes approaching a person, trying to detain and question them, and they really don't have to sit down and engage them.
I say this knowing someone, pre cell phones, who held a person a gunpoint who was breaking into a neighbor's house. It took time to call the police, for them to respond, etc. He was charged with kidnapping because even though the burglar was on their front porch peeping in, he hadn't yet caused any damage.
The biggest thing I remember from my CCW training is that before you intervene you better be VERY sure about what you are intervening on.
Totally agree. The justice system often does not match up with actual justice. The Left has gone to great lengths to ensure that criminals are protected.
Arbery literally ran around the truck towards the gun owner and started throwing punches. Totally justified. Thats why the original prosecutor refused to charge them.

but people can gather outside Tucker Carlson's house because "this is America". Is there a law against following someone in public?
if they file a restraining order.
Yup. And they absolutely had a right to confront him. Any citizen has a right to intervene when they see a crime being committed.
