ALL HAIL PRESIDENT TRUMP
|
I think what faerwin is trying to say is that it would be just dandy if some Anonymous soul out there decided to do their reenactment of the prom queen scene from Carrie, with the Democratic presidential nominee in the starring role. Except, of course, for that part where the metal bucket hits someone on the head — we wouldn't want someone to really experience hurt. Would we?
I bet faerwin sees the titular character of that tale as just another violent far-right terrorist, and is disgusted that avowed racist and sexist Steve King (R-Iowa) wrote in so much sympathy for the sinister Ann Coulter look-alike. Her family is devoutly Christian — need way say more? A gallon of But hey, I could be wrong. Maybe faerwin doesn't actually believe hitting people with low-injury objects and liquids is okay. When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero. Since his life model decoy isn't up to the task, please do not mistake my performance as political discussion. I'm just doing what Steve would have wanted.

" Am i right to assume you don't know what "can be read as" means? I think my post was pretty clear, but maybe i need to elaborate. That piece is a propaganda piece which should be read as such, it is designed to trigger any person who wants to see trump as the enemy and feed them slogan material to chant. Little bite size out of context phrases that align perfectly with what the person is looking for. That is not saying there isn't a ground of truth to the material presented, just that it is clearly motivated in one direction only. You know propaganda, propping up a story. And with this knowledge in hand, the first thing a reader "could" do is read the statements and imagine all the non-violent scenario's they could be uttered in to game the journalist in question.

" I don't see it as ok. But I don't see it as assault either. I certainly don't see it as a violent act. Assault, to me, is an action that can result in injuries AND with the intent to injure. Throwing a tomato, to me, is equal to a pie to the face. Build of the week #9 - Breaking your face with style http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_EcQDOUN9Y

So to clarify, what happened to Carrie in Carrie was not assault?

https://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/assault
An assault is carried out by a threat of bodily harm coupled with an apparent, present ability to cause the harm. It is both a crime and a tort and, therefore, may result in either criminal or civil liability. Generally, the common law definition is the same in criminal and Tort Law. There is, however, an additional Criminal Law category of assault consisting of an attempted but unsuccessful Battery. Statutory definitions of assault in the various jurisdictions throughout the United States are not substantially different from the common-law definition. So yeah, a tomato isn't an assault and neither is blood pig.

“An assault is the act of inflicting physical harm or unwanted physical contact upon a person or, in some specific legal definitions, a threat or attempt to commit such an action. It is both a crime and a tort and, therefore, may result in either criminal and/or civil liability.
. . . In the United States,[where?] assault may be defined as an attempt to commit a battery. However, the crime of assault can encompass acts in which no battery is intended, but the defendant's act nonetheless creates reasonable fear in others that a battery will occur.[32] Four elements were required at common law:[33] 1. The apparent, present ability to carry out; 2. An unlawful attempt; 3. To commit a violent injury; 4. Upon another. As the criminal law evolved, element one was weakened in most jurisdictions so that a reasonable fear of bodily injury would suffice. These four elements were eventually codified in most states.“ —Wikipedia Throwing food at somebody does not appear to be assault. Disorderly conduct, something(?) else, but not assault. Nor would be the case of Carrie vs. Bates High School, though unlike milkshake vigilantes, there is very likely something else criminally prosecutable going on there (whereas with milkshake vigilantes there may be, but is not implicitly so).

answer
https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/battery
1. In criminal law, this is a physical act that results in harmful or offensive contact with another person without that person's consent. So throwing a milkshake at someone is assault (attempted battery), and hitting them with that milkshake is battery.  When Stephen Colbert was killed by HYDRA's Project Insight in 2014, the comedy world lost a hero.

If “offensive” is a form of contact defined by law as assault, then sure; although I do wonder where a legally sensible definition of offensive would fall. However, at least in my state, no such distinction seems to be made. Assault is defined relatively closely to the previous quote, prohibiting specifically bodily injury—not injury of pride.
Throwing food at people is very clearly offensive, likely punishable through a number of other claims, but is no more simple assault than it is sexual assault.
Spoiler
Although I did briefly consider a line or two about non consensual contact with food earlier.
