Somebody spit on someone. That is the assault charge.
Some Nazi who is a very good person ran down and killed someone who was not a NAZI in Charlottesville.
That's when we bring up the titles of politics. Not because someone got spit on. It is assault and the person should PAY with whatever a criminal gets who assaults with spit.
It amazes me that this is all you can dig up for your wall of shame against THE OPPOSITION to TRUMP's atrocities.
I guess we are better than I'd thought.

But this wasn't about Trump and what Trump may or may not do, it was about a person being spit on and whether or not they can press charges. As usual, you continue to politicize a non-political question. With all due respect, you really need to focus. :)
Well to be fair the LINK that was posted as part of the post WAS about politics and Trump supporter vs Non-binary person... AND more to the point the article/link directly and deliberately used the alleged assault to insult and denigrate the alleged assaulter using some very over the top language such as deranged.. I think my point and Spawn's was that the political angle wasn't relevant BUT that it had been made so by the article.

Well in defense of (is itSharon?) anything and everything can have a pollical component and political consequences. But if that is all we think about or consider we can end up driving ourselves crazy. And others as well. Good to lighten up and let go sometimes.
In defense of that guy who just tried to argue my point by pointing out that he agrees with me but has no idea that we just said exactly the same thing?
Carbon Product is the one who started labeling. I don't care if it was a NAZI. If you spit on a Nazi you have attacked and assaulted a Nazi.
Assault is assault, it matters not whether the teen was an alleged Trump supporter or whether the attacker is alleged to be non-binary or not.. I am left wondering therefore about the validity of the source as they seem to take positive delight in reporting this and make copious use of derogatory terms in connection with the alleged perpetrator, calling him deranged. I am wondering what they base that on..
Oh and further analysis reveals that the alleged non-binary person did not attack the teen, he spat on the teen's hat.. there's a difference. Yes, it's a person's property but it isn't the person he spat on..Analysing it too, I note that the alleged non-binary person is also alleged to be a leftist.. I can only imagine this allegation was made because he called the other a racist.. Calling someone a racist doesn't make one a leftist... This is in every way very poor reporting.
Assault is assault is assault and we don't care about how much we might loathe the one who gets spit on. It's assault. That is why we must keep our DEMOCRACY, all you Trump afficionados.
If I'm not mistaken, if someone spits at you, it's considered assault. If the spit lands on you it's considered battery. So I would say that the person who was attacked could file charges.
