Quotes related to the Doctrine of Hue and Cry and how it relates to the Second Amendment:
Williams vs State of Arkansas:
“one who came upon evidence of a crime was himself guilty of an offense if he failed to raise the "hue" to call out the neighbors to turn out with weapons they were bound to keep.” (Williams vs State of Arkansans 1973)
Statute at Winchester 1252:
“And if any stranger pass by them, let him be arrested until morning: and if nothing suspicious is found he may go free, but if anything suspicious is found let him be handed over to the sheriff forthwith and he shall receive him without making difficulty and keep him safely until he is delivered in due manner. And if they will not suffer themselves to be arrested, let hue and cry be raised against them and those who keep watch shall follow them with the whole vill together with the neighbouring vills with hue and cry from vill to vill until they are taken and handed over to the sheriff as is aforesaid; and for the arrest of such strangers no one shall have legal proceedings taken against him.” (King Edward I, Statute at Winchester)

"This week, a modern hue and cry turned out to be the political Play of the Week."
