      Holding someone without evidence is. You can’t detain someone indefinitely until you find proof of what you think they may have done. That’s called abduction. Which is why most places have a set 8 hour hold time before you have to press charges or release them.

        Sweden abducts a lot of people than. Actually, we’ve got criticism for our rules regarding detaining people

          Then by all means by Sweedens laws Texas should arrest all of the Democrat congressmembers who left the state and tell them next year why they were arrested after forcing their replacements to sign by threatening to arrest anyone who won’t show up and allow their vote.

          Doesn’t seem like freedom though, seems like abduction
