Illegal Fart

Drink, drive, forget to turn on headlights, get stopped, fail sobriety tests, get taken to jail.  Normal sequence of events for an alcoholic.  Just don’t move to where you’re standing next to the officer that arrested you and speak from the toothless end to express your opinion.  You might get charged with battery on an officer.  Sound a little steep?  The legal definition of battery requires that you physically touch the person in the process of harming them.  Then a judge ruled that blowing smoke on someone was battery because the smoke particles exit the mouth and touch the supposedly battered.  So after said alcoholic moves over so he’s standing next to the officer that arrested him and farts, he gets charged with battery.   Wow.  An illegal fart.  Don’t tell my wife, I’ll never get out of jail
