minus-squareAnnoyed_🦀 Alink9•2 months agoSurrender? Citizen arrest mean one citizen arrest another to turn them to police, to arrest oneself is to surrender i guess.
minus-square@over_clox@lemmy.worldOPlinkfedilink1•2 months agoYes, I suppose. But more like crazy person level, like call the cops on themself for stealing a candy bar or something similarly stupid, then handcuff themself to a bench or light pole or something…
minus-squareAnnoyed_🦀 Alink4•2 months agoTechnically speaking it’s still umm citizen arrest but in general I think it still count as surrender. Different term for different situation i guess.
