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

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.

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.

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.

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

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).

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

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

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

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

The common law definition, in pretty much every state is that assault is an action that causes apprehension of imminent physical contact of a harmful or offensive nature. Battery is contact of a harmful or offensive nature.

These aren't statutory (criminal) definitions, which will vary from state to state, but these are the accepted legal definitions. Also, there can be both assault and battery, or just one.
