Next time someone says that to me, I'm going to tell them, "You're not afraid of Covid? Good! You should go volunteer at the hospital to help move the dead bodies to the refrigerator cars or hold up the phone for dying Covid patients to say good-bye to their family. Be sure to tell them at the hospital that they don't need to supply you with a mask, since you're not afraid of getting Covid."

Spraying someone with anything can be considered assault. cayugafalls Nov 2020 #31

Can you swing your fist near their face? Foolacious Nov 2020 #37

That would be assault (creating fear of injury). Actually hitting is battery. . . . nt Bernardo de La Paz Nov 2020 #79

Then not wearing a mask in public during a pandemic is assault... Foolacious Nov 2020 #89
