    Still a literal crime (assault) for the spat-on police officer to punch the perp.
    That’s why people get the huge settlements from courts (more USA than Germany tho), there just is no legal basis for such cop actions.

        understand

        Oh, absolutely, totally!!
        I fully agree with all those points about why context matters. Context is very important.

        And assault/crime, as you just pointed out, isn’t as a definition related to the backstory or country lore.

        As well as leniency showed by courts in such cases. Very important for justice, and context needs to be researched.

        Calling people “dumb as fuck” before understanding the argument is perhaps not the best trait tho.
        Y?
