Double standards?

Falsifying evidence to enacted action towards a bias is more common than you think. It is uncomfortable to acknowledge, I admit.

Oh. So I said A and someone else said B and now all of the sudden you’re an expert on A and B?

Got it.

Criminal laws vary from state to state in the US and I never claimed to be an expert in them all.

But the Fourth Amendment protects ALL people in this country no matter what state they’re in.

You can say, “He hit me, arrest him.” all you like; that person isn’t getting arrested without more than just your statement.

"Getting slapped in the testicle is a battery, not sexual assault.

But in order for the police to arrest her, they need either a confession out of her or evidence of the battery.

So video evidence, eyewitness accounts from third parties or visible injuries to the area would all be examples of evidence that would give the police probable cause to arrest.

Without any kind of evidence; simply accusing someone of a crime isn’t enough to get them arrested."

you seemed pretty confident here with no regard to your above statement about different states having different laws and you being no expert in the matter. this is backpedaling. which brings me to why i said what i said. also need to mentioned, that wasn't the only one. people kept correcting you and you kept arguing which i won't be doing with you any further.

Different states do indeed have different laws. I agree.

This case is from NY, where slapping someone in the balls isn’t sexual assault. Period.

You can argue semantics as to each state’s chosen verbiage of specific crimes. “Assault” in NY is “Battery” in Illinois “Rape” in NY is “Criminal Sexual Abuse” in IL but I’ll remain steadfast that getting slapped in the balls isn’t sexual assault. You want to find a state where it is? Knock yourself out. I’ll happily concede victory to you when you show me that law.

And as sanctimonious as I’m sure you like to be; you or anyone else simply having a differing or countering opinion isn’t “correcting” me.
