"Tracy Firsching, 47, is charged with assault on a peace officer, a third-degree felony for which she faces up to 10 years in prison. "

This sounds rather severe for the crime, except in cases involving egg salad which oughta be life with no chance of parole.

In such an instance, “no habla engles” and you’ll be home in time for dinner.

Depends — was it real mayonnaise or Miracle Whip? That should make a big difference at sentencing.

ANY assault on a Secret Service agent should draw a heck of a long sentence. If random PITAs are allowed to get away with a slap on the wrist for this sort of thing, they’ll be doing it constantly, diverting Secret Service officers’ attention away from serious threats to the people they’re protecting. It could easily be used as a strategy by serious threats. Incite a bunch of stupid college kids to engage in some “harmless civil disobedience” by doing things like this, distracting officers while the serious threat successfully proceeds with his/her plan, thanks to the help from the unwitting college kids.

Yup, and if she's convicted I guess the "yolk" will be on her instead of him.

And the Secret Service placed the egg salad into the evidence locker.
