Did you read the news article? She’s 16 now. So would have been 14 at the time. And was suffering from command auditory hallucinations. Far from being a “ wild take” I’ve seen people with command hallucinations. It’s not a pretty sight. I suspect actually experiencing them is rather distressing.

Locking someone away does not fix psychosis.you should read “The quiet room “ by Lori Schiller. She’s a now adequately medicated schizophrenic who suffered command auditory along with some visual hallucinations for several years. She describes what that is like in detail.

The federal agent wasn’t carrying pursuant to LEOSA. She was carrying under 6106. The federal gun free school zone allows states to license individual to carry in those areas. PA law allows people to carry in those areas pursuant the Uniform Firearms Act. Firearm possession on school property is covered under section 912 of the PA crimes code. There is no distance buffer in 912.

Your claim that Philly is a gun free zone is dead wrong. As is your claim that she is covered only on duty. Section 6106 has her covered.

It's like I kill a dog with my Ford fiesta and because I'm a Ford employee, they don't check if I can drive. If they had a permit, no issues, but the fact you asked is a bigger discussion that it took this long for someone to ask that simple question which would squash all other dissenting opinions

You answered it yourself a citizen’s arrest. You are acting as a citizen and not law enforcement officer. A police officer off duty cab make a citizen’s arrest but they will typically make an arrest under their law enforcement title because they can and it currently provides legal protections a citizens arrest cant.

That last sentence is the only thing you have said that makes sense.

Whole departments aren't Leos, only people with arresting powers.

I'm a civilian, I provide an information to magistrate and commence a citizen's arrest.

Am I always a LEO?

Is arresting power vested in the information provided to the judge after the investigation. Or is the arresting power arrested until a judge signs off or investigation is complete?
