The feds arrested a man because someone somewhere near him allegedly pointed a laser at police.
Guilt by association has been ruled to be no grounds for arrest.
The man was released 20 minutes after questioning because the Feds had nothing on him

He was detained but not arrested. Totally legal.....
"The Fourth Amendment applies to “seizures” and it is not necessary that a detention be a formal arrest in order to bring to bear the requirements of warrants, or probable cause in instances in which warrants are not required."

So any time cops want to arrest someone, or even detain them for questioning, they have to have a warrant first?
Once again your side is now creating new and completely false standards in your quest to get the BAD ORANGE MAN.
They have to have probable cause. Being outside is not probable cause.
Some guy dressed in black, with a covered face did something worthy of detention, they found a guy in the area dressed in black, with a covered face, probably matching the description of the guy they were looking for.
They wanted to question him, however whenever the rioters see police action they try to interfere, so they took him somewhere safe to question him.
When they determined they had the wrong guy, they released him.
You are now just making things up.
It is my view of what happened based on the information I have seen so far.
You never saw what you made up.
I read an interview of someone from DHS on this..........................
No you didn't.

"Well I can't speak on that" is all he says. Obviously if he can't "speak on that" he can't say he was wearing all black and a black hood now can he?
