So I was on the bus today...

[Mrs. Tuberski]

No i was using assualt for him flicking the cigerette out of his hand not touching the guy at all with the guy fearing he was going to get hit Indeed the taking the cigarette and burning him is battery i wasnt speaking about the burning incident to begin with. I was only speaking of the knocking of the cig out of his hands and into his lap and dirty looks. I never said anything bout him kicking him.

If he did it really quickly (which isn't that difficult to do), there probably isn't reasonable apprehension of being hit... especially if the guys hand was close to his lap and he was looking up.

However, flicking the cig is battery, even if he doesn't touch anything else.

[Mrs. Tuberski]

for the sake of all arguments the two parties are both gulity of battery. Wb for the burning and the other guy for flicking his cig at him while exiting the bus. But wb is also guilty of assualt for making the other guy fear that he was about to hit him. To me it is blantantly apparent wb wasnt afraid this guy was going to hit him so therfore the other guy isnt guilty of assualt. Either way you look at it the situation became explosive and it didnt have to.

Btw, WB, where they the MX(whatever) 71 earphones you had?

I know not my liege. They look like slugs and they're pretty damn quiet from the outside, especially on a bus with a 12-cylinder engine firing.

I'm sorry Mrs Tubes but I don't really care about your semantic masturbation and definition tapestry here. I've been there, done that for years and ultimately it's just a chess game of bull**** vs. perversity, with all the importance to ones life you'd normally attach to a few pieces of wood. As far as I'm concerned I don't feel that what I did was wrong and I'm not a person without a conscience.

So you can call it whatever the hell you want but tbh I don't really give a damn.

Actually you may have it backwards. If the guy flicked his cigarette at WB, then he is liable for assault (reasonable apprehension of a battery). If it hit WB, then it's a battery as well. If WB flicked the cig quickly, making it a surprise that the cig was in his lap (which I've seen happen before, mind... flicking a cig quick so that the smoker doesn't know what the Hell happened), then the other guy didn't reasonably apprehend a battery, but was battered.

Btw, the legal standard is reasonable apprehension. NOT being scared (fear can either mean being scared or a reasonable apprehension, depending on how you use it.. ie, I can fear that a fly will land me). Being scared is never, never, never a standard for assault. If a 90 lb weakling throws a punch at a 200 lb, muscle bound guy, and misses, that's still assault.

Right- own up. Which middle-aged "Daily Mail" reader has hacked his account?

Be that as it may. I dont really give a dam if you care or not. Last time I checked I wasnt talking to you but rather about your actions and how the situation could have been handled differently. And if you want to get into insults and be how you are being then fine that is your option. But Im not going to go there with you.

You're really up on things in this forum, aren't you KH?

I suspect he's had a little to drink. With KH, that's generally the rule, not the exception.

I was one of the most against Faded Glory. Then he died, and I was all like "WTF?!" and felt bad.

If this is the real Faded Glory...and you're still alive (assumably not ZOMBIEFIED!) then, all I have to say is...**** you
