I'm glad you had some restraint in Texass. :r:r

Were I live many people carry. You come into a person's space uninvited you get shot no questions asked.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

My invisible friends think some of you are nuts.

But I'm still sure if I had my hose out "watering the trees" and a person grabbed a cigar out of my mouth they would get sprinkled.

There is justice in this world:banger

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Tom... I'm glad you have a sense of humor... reading this made me uncontrollably laugh out loud at my desk at work... I needed that, so thanks!

Joey, I think you handled it great and I'm glad to see that things worked out well for you in the end. :tu

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

I am less concerned with that, than if I am ever charged with decapitating a woman and drinking the blood from her skull....now they can say it was premeditated. :eek:

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

:tpd: Very funny.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Tom if you need a partner in crime, I can help:r

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Herf partner in crime, perhaps, Nate? :)

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

You know it:tu Maybe this January. I have time off of college, and I'll be in downtown Chicago for a bachelors party.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Sounds like a plan! Find me some cougars!! :D

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

:r:r

No college girls?:D

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

I have been reading this thread so long I forgot, did this happen on a Monday?

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Sounds like it is time to sell the house

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Wow this thread took off. I can not believe she had that nerve. In front of her kids no less. Well I hope the kids are there if this does go to court to see there are consequences for your actions.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

file charges for assault and destruction of property.. if she would have done that to me i would have taken a defensive stance and told her to back away as i was calling police.. if she came closer and had her arm at me in any way i would have broke it saying i didnt know what she was doing other than attacking me and i had to defend myself... in ohio if someone comes on your property and attempts to hurt you, you can defend yourself on your property.... if any part of her came close i would have broken it.

She also should be glad it was you and not my neighbor... vet of WWII, korea, and served 2 years eairly part of nam before he said he was done. hes old, his wifes gone, rest her...... and i think he'd shot her.....alot...... because i dont think he cares about jail.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

O.o everytime I leave this thread grows 2 pages!

Well idk how being charged works, but I'll update if anything else happens I guess xD maybe I'll just let this die, this thread has caused enough trouble :r

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Trouble? Trouble! Just wait till I finish in my laboratory! I will rule the world!
Bwuhahahahahah!
Just a few more drops.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Need.......more.....brain.....blood. :dr

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Ummm, was she hot?:D

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

wow he does post sometimes. :r



As to original topic, See this is why I never leave the cigar in my mouth its always in my hand. :D

OOOhhhh yeah I would have DDTd her then got up on the roof and dropped a peoples elbow on her. Or maybe down a superfly snooka attack. Seiously hit a stupid women over a her stupid action? Lets settle down. You can only use force to protect yourself or someone else ladies. Hitting a woman? Infront of her kids? Over a 10 dollar cigar? Lifes to short.

Maybe Cali law is different from the rest of the state but you all should read the definition of assualt and battery. :r

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

I woulda dug in my pocket and lit another....

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

For what it's worth, I personally believe that, in the spirit of American egalitarianism, when a woman acts in a brutish or even violent way as this woman clearly has, she has forfeited any social protections which are traditionally afforded to ladies. If society allows a certain percentage of itself to act with impunity, then no one can claim any sort of equality because the rest of society will have been denied the equal protection guaranteed by the XIVth Amendment, perhaps not in a legal way, but certainly in a social way. One cannot claim equality and deference in the same breath. :2

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

I missed the part of this story where this woman made any sort of claim for either equality or deference.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

You're applying a logical argument to an illogical being. :2




Disclaimer: This is intended as a joke directed at the cigar distroying woman and not a stereotypical assessment of women in general.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Thats wrong man :r lol

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Somebody bred with her.:xxx

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

:tpd:Assault is a lot more than most here are expecting. You can make physical contact with another person and its not assault, someone has to have some pretty serious injury for it to be assault. :rolleyes:

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Adoption?


:=:

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

That was simply in reference to statements made that there is no circumstance in which one may strike a woman. People have posted that it is never permissible to hit a woman, but that deference is never, ever given to men; a privilege based only on gender. In short, it was a general comment on societal custom.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

In Illinois, assault means putting someone in reasonable fear of receiving a battery. No contacts needs to be made, and certainly no injury needs to occur. The definitions and semantics vary widely from state to state.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

I agree that there may be circumstances where is it both legal and proper to strike a woman. This scenario is certainly NOT one of them.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

In Kentucky, you pretty much need to be bloodied for it to be assault. :sh

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Yup, the word "assault" means very different things from state to state. In Illinois, your example would be "battery".

In Illinois, there also is no "assault and battery", as when you have battered someone, you have moved past assault, and if you have simply assaulted someone, you could not have committed a battery (all by IL definitions).

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Is spraying her with the hose assault?

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

In Illionois that could range from battery (high end) to disorderly conduct (low end), but could not be assault by definition. Might be different in the OPs jurisdiction, though.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

what about a burning bag of poop on their front door?

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Im not a lawyer or in law enforcement so Im not going to even try to decipher the law as its written or enforced.

...and some of the comments in this thread just make me shake my head.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

:r

Disorderly conduct.....and a hoot to boot.

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Sounds like Georgia. At home you have to be on the ground bleeding and someone had to have seen it :)

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

:r :r :r

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Not if you don't get caught :noon

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Sounds like most of these states define "assault" as Illinois defines "battery". Nobody said Illinois lawmakers were the sharpest knives in the drawer. ;)

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

I heard flowers don't like clorox.. I'm just sayin'....

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Battery in Georgia, is that thing we stick in our truck to crank it :wnr

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

I suppose that would depend upon whether this woman is guilty of assualt and/or battery; one does have the right to defend themself, and, if she was continuing to yell and scream at him after initial contact, then an argument could be made...

At any rate, it's now an issue for the law to deal with.

:bdh

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Thanks Tom this was the point of my whole post.
Well that and pulling a cigar from someones mouth likely resulted in no actual physical contact to the OP. While you may have a trespass to and destruction of private property's. No court in this state or most will find a battery has occurred. If I responded to the call I would be hooking the tough guys who punched a women or worse over a 10 dollar cigar. Even if there was an unwanted touching you would have a impossible time explaining how punch a woman in the face or using an force that inflicted injury was required.

Again come on boys, its a 10 dollar cigar and a miserable women with her kids. :r

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

I am pretty confident that my dating life can be defined as "Assault and Flattery".

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Damn those Duracells!! Damn them all to hell!!!





:rolleyes:

Re: WTF is wrong with people?
 

Texas defines both very similarly to Illinois--and, as far as I know, that's the majority view.
