The Coast Guard in Boston confirmed that a woman in uniform was harassed and spat upon by Occupy Boston protesters.
Surprise, surprise - NOT.
As they say: 'A Leopard can't change it's stripes' ;-).

But 'series' if I saw that I'd be compelled to 'correct that person's attitude'. As per SCOTUS that's not 'protected speech', but 'Fighting Words'. So said spitter would get what he deserved (that'd be my defense and I'd stick to it).

These maggot pinko-commies always have and always will hate America and our Republic. And they're lucky I'm not sitting in the Oval Office writing out Hit Lists like Barry is doing. [Apparently it's 'legal' again.]

(IMO I always thought it should be 'legal'. Ford's EO stopping the CIA from doing what they did best ('wet work') was boneheaded.)

And you would have a case, I think:

excerpt:

Battery can also be indirect such as the perpetrator throwing and hitting the other person with an object such as a shoe or knife or by spitting. If a person were to threaten to spit upon another person and the spitter said they had HIV / AIDS and were intending to infect the other person, then this would be assault. If the spit landed upon the other person, this would be battery.
