Well, IDK what state ( or World) you're talking about, but IN Florida it has to be a felony (preferably a forcible felony) and yes you HAVE to be a U.S. Citizen. I dare you to try and hold me for a misdemeanor. You better know the law better than me.

???? Do you know what "tantamount " means? it means "the same as", so you said, "employing deadly force is not "the same as", arrest." Well of course it isn't, who said it was? I have NO idea what you're trying to say. Employing a citizens arrest is todetain them until the cops arrive and yes, some times it means using SOME kind of force. How deadly it is, is entirely up to them.
