How about injury & contact done using multiple tools and forces of high energy such as radiation, electronic & rf waves, radar and neuroweapons to violate, manipulate, control and degrade the human subjects brain, body & central nervous system ---against their consent daily for over one year? Or in other words harm from torture?
Great video lesson! Regarding social norms: sometimes even a simple salutation like "Good Morning" in a professional setting is problematic. And there have been no physical contact. This is how delicate these matters are.
If you can present evidence (i.e., witness testimony), yes, probably. Would need more context, but a reasonable person in the customer's shoes would have known with substantial certainty that this would cause both imminent apprehension of offensive contact and actual offensive contact. Definitely battery by virtue of pulling your hand alone.
@@MadhurChhabra , yes. Think about whether a reasonable person in the same of similar circumstances should have known whether such contact might be offensive. Generally speaking, hugging a stranger without their consent will amount to battery should they wish to litigate. Don't do it.
7:27 Basically #believeAllWomen uses this to an extreme. Consent is removed as the traditionally used to be to be now gynocentric. The worse part, people end in jail, then free but the prosecution is immune to any wrongdoing as always it's the state who pays up.
The tort of battery is entirely distinct from the crime of assault and battery, or other crimes of sexual assault/misconduct. There’s no basis for comparison here between criminal law and civil tort law

WHAT COUNTS AS CONTACT??!!!
A stranger slapping you on the back while getting onto a bus, after you saying you've had a back injury.
What if the battery is done with a baseball bat?

Major fuck-up @ .56, guys. Quite startling. Otherwise great video.

I have a question. This customer pulled me from my hand really bad to hit me. I quickly move out of the way . is that considered assault?

@@binnyaxelman8804I forgot I had a dash camera. It recorded everything
Does an unwanted hug amount to battery if the plaintiff is a movie star and the defendant is a fan?
if we look at the elements, it would be hard to prove that the contact was intended to be harmful or offensive.
