A very fine officer in our jurisdiction was spit on. The arrested man banged his head till his face was bleeding and the blood ran to his mouth. The officer was buckling him in the back seat and the blood and spit went into his eyes. The defendant has Hep C. I have no sympathy for the spitters of the world.
Back in the fifties when I was in grade school I used to see a fellow known as BJ who was a WWII vet and wore a patch on one eye. He didn’t lose that eye in the war, he lost it fighting with a peace officer. He gave the cops a really hard time and got hit on the head with a baton which, unfortunately, struck him in the eye. These days they would just shoot him. One of my classmates said BJ told him once, “I’ll bet I’ve been in a thousand fights and never won one.”
I think he must have been the original “Cool Hand Luke”.
This is why I can see why she took one in the chops. It’s stuff like this. Many of those people have diseases you wouldn’t want to get, and hopefully they get prosecuted not only for assault but deliberately infecting another person.
