Someone spat in my face the other day because i was rude to them what could i have done legally?

It is considered assault. You could have called the police. Doubt they would have done much, but you could have taken the police statement to civil court.

Here's an idea, don't be rude to people and they won't spit in your face.

sheesh!

You can legally learn a lesson that being rude to people has consequences.

what exactly did you do that was so rude?

MLE

You could have filed an assault charge against them. But you are better off just not being rude to people. You probably deserved what you got, and your probably lucky they didn't smack you in the head.

Pickles taste good

Not be rude, you got off light, in LA they might have shot you.

If you tried a citizens arrest you would probably get your *** kicked. By the way why don't you just use the experience as a lesson to quit being rude to people. Remember this isn't just your world, you share it with others. And if you want to be rude expect it back to you ten fold. And for the record the cops wouldn't do anything about it. I hate people like you, you offend people for a reaction, then when you get one you cry about it. If you where rude to me I would beat your ***!!!!

LiL ALi

well you were rude to them so do you really expect that they should have been nice to you?

learn from your experience..dont be rude to people next time..

Plumber Rock

I would say it was a good lesson learned. Live with it.

It's no big deal, although illegal. It's a good job they were not chewing tobacco at thew same time.

COD4 Junkie

learn a lesson about being rude...and be glad they didnt choose to use a knife or something! (these days, it pays not to be too rude to people!)

Boo

How about not being rude in the first place.

adrian p

Urm, my answer would depend on how rude you were to them, having said that spitting in someones face is not the thing i would do, as for what can you do.., well where is the evidence, any whitneses??, if not then nothing, lesson to be learned, dont be rude!!

Pregnant Mommy!

nothing. Try not to be rude next time.

GWB

Nothing now.
Stop being rude would help.

don't push it

what the other said don't be rude that's the only way

Knochen Hussein Schinken

Consider yourself lucky. If you are rude to the wrong person, you will get shot.

dove

when someone spit in your face it is an insult,they could have done worst,so thank your lucky stars...you were rude and paid the price..if you were to do something now it will be blown out of proportion,you cannot arrest this person...but you could get even nicely...good luck..

Buck Ofama

That could be classified as assault.

Ivor Hugh G.Rection

No offence, but don't you think the police have bigger things to be worried about?

....... then again......

Minimum force. Citizen's arrest is fraught with danger unless you know the law very well.
You would be better advised to call a constable and let him deal with it.

Tina Marie

I think if I were you I would just go home and tell my Mommy, she can take care of everything.

RUDE MOOD!

take your face to the cops and let them take a photo of it and post it on thier myspace page.

Real Talk

If you really wanted to pursue it, you should have just called your local police department and filed a report. Then, asked what measures would be taken to resolve the issue, if any.

dave_lorrell

Was it a straight gob? Or a jolly grolly?

nick.

knocked them the f*ck out

El Cid

So you can dish it, but can't take it? Don't you have a bigger brother you can run back to and ask him to beat them up?

Depending on the Laws in your area, you could have theoretically had assualt charges laid on them. Furthermore, they'd be required to submit to tests to look for any infections/diseases that they could have potentially spread to you.

With that being said, if you've been spit on someone, I recommend seaking medical attention and requesting a screening test for any possibly transferred diseases.
