Original Note:
Senator Moore attempted to illegally enter a highly restricted area that he was “banned” from. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2025/01/16/georgia-senator-colton-moore-arrested-house-ban/77754151007/ The authorities had the right to use reasonable force to restrict Moore from entering, which is not considered “assault” in the eyes of the courts. https://www.amu.apus.edu/area-of-study/criminal-justice/resources/when-is-police-use-of-force-justified/#:~:text=It%20is%20crucial%20that%20the,deadly%20force%20may%20be%20justified. https://www.performance-protocol.com/post/what-is-reasonable-force-in-law-enforcement
