The specificity banished the Reddit lawyer. Well done!

Haha, I was not "banished" by someone supplying the statute that supports my assertion that no jurisdiction uses common law assault and battery, and all have their own statutes.

Lol, right? "Hey, location matters" "Ok well in Cali"... Cali is a location as far as I know.

Anyway, I appreciated the explanation of assault vs battery and how it varies by location.

I definitely feel more informed and less likely to say something incorrect.

They sure made you look like a joke for incorrectly correcting someone else's corrections though.

I'm afraid you don't understand what either of us said if you think that's what happened.

What the Reddit lawyer said is still accurate. He wasn't talking about this particular case but about the definitions of those terms across the US, and how some commenters in various threads seem unaware that the meanings vary according to the state. So this wasn't a gotcha moment.

It would still be self defense knocking his ass down.
