    AN Australian police union has backed the arrest and charging of a man for allegedly burping in a staff member's face at the police station in Tully, south of Cairns, saying police are sick of being treated with a lack of respect. http://www.cairns.com.au/article/2008/09/04/6721_local-news.html[^]

      In the United States a MD circuit-court ruled this year that mooning was not Lewd but merely offensive which is protected speech. No clarification was made about the fruit bowl.

        That is gross and disrespectful, but I don't feel that should warrant an arrest.

          It would really depend on the people involved. On it's own, taken out of context, perhaps not. But I'm sure there a numerous situations where arrest would be an appropriate response.

            Well, there's always more to the story: police told the man to stop burping but he then started "swearing, became abusive to police and aggressive in front of others including an elderly woman waiting at the counter".

                A guy I know once got into an argument at a gas station with a woman. She yelled at him, he yelled at her , both of them moving closer to each other. When he got too close and accidentaly stepped on her toe(not her foot, just a toe)she called the cops and he got a 4th degree assault charge.

                      Yeah but the cop is not allowed to smack the smartass in the mouth which is a more appropriate response.

                            if it was just burping involved, it would probably be classified as "free speech" here :rolleyes:
