[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A professor at the local university (Cal State Channel Islands) was arrested and detained for days for throwing back a tear gas canister. He is being charged with assault.

Random questions but how did his hand not get burned throwing it back? And is it really assault if no one got hurt when he threw it back (the witness statement from the officer states it went over their heads)?

It is around 2:35. He tries to kick it out of the way, misses then throws it, then gets pushed pretty hard to the ground. Can't they call it even?

Nope.  He needs to be charged.  Just because nobody was hurt by his actions doesn't mean he didn't commit assault.  
If you interfere with the operations of law enforcement, you will be held accountable.  This guy did just that.

Why am I not shocked by his appearance? Hopefully no one stole his e-bike while he was in jail.

For the neophytes, assault is the wrongful act of causing someone to reasonably FEAR imminent harm.

Battery is the intentional and harmful or offensive touching of another person without consent.[/quote]
