Yes, you're not a lawyer. Nor is Wikipedia necessarily an authoritative legal text.
On the other hand, the thread here on
Civil Liability, Civil Immunity, and the Use of Force to which I originally linked in post 40 was written by someone with a known legal background and with the assistance and review of three lawyers familiar with the subject.
So the nature and scope of the protection afforded by civil immunity laws is as described in that thread and by me in my several posts here.
