Quite simply, you do not have any "right" to do as you please, especially spitting..
And there you have it people, the kind of mentality that is robbing the rights of the people in this nation.
Is not about spitting or urinating or doing any other obnosious society nasty tagged behavior in public, but is about control.
That is what many are failing to see, stupid laws as an excused for human behavior manipulation.
Pity.

So I know many people that spray when the talk . . .
So . . . when is going to become an assault to spray on people while talking?
I also wonder if very soon we all need to wear mask to avoid breathing on others people an contaminating their space.
This are issues of behavior in a civilized society, this a matter of education, I don't think that many here goes around spitting on others for the fun of it, because is wrong and disgusting . . .that is what our parents, teachers, chruch officials, health officials tells us.
But when laws and government gets involved, this is not just about regulations this is about controlling human behavior by means of enforcing them with laws and punishements making criminal acts of just behaviour problems.
How far this type of assault on people is going to keep going without control.
Because Is all about control . . .
-PENAL CODE CHAPTER 22.01
§ 22.01. ASSAULT. (a) A person commits an offense if the person: (1) intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly causes bodily injury to another, including the person's spouse; (2) intentionally or knowingly threatens another with imminent bodily injury, including the person's spouse; or 3) intentionally or knowingly causes physical contact with another when the person knows or should reasonably believe that the other will regard the contact as offensive or provocative.

Spitting in the face of another individual has to be the ultimate form of disrespect in my opinion. If I were punched in the face, it would not offend me half as much as if someone spit. Not exactly why I feel this way, but I do. I completely agree that spitting on other people should be a punishable offense. I don't think we are looking at any massive punishment for it, but it is certainly an anti-social behaviour that we can not, and should not, tolerate.
I support this as a punishable offense.

Well no really, do you go around spitting on people's face? I don't, I know you don't either, because we know that is disgusting and wrong . . .
But people that has nothing to lose or don't care are going to do it law or not law.
