Riight, so in the US and A one can be detained for flatulence.

He was detained for drunk driving... farting at the cop just added... ummm... icing on the cake.

Is this the same guy who was beaten up because he had diabetes?

That's nothing. How about being tasered on a ledge and falling to your death because you were running around naked, swinging a light bulb (apparently the long florescent type) and yelling because you didn't take your medication.

Should have taken your meds :D

Sorry, sondjata, I can't quite compare your example with a... fart. :D

Re: Never, ever assault a police officer...
 

Yes. Also, you have bad breath. Expect a letter from my lawer. ;)

heh, on the flipside, there is a story about a local from the northern part of norway who basically called the local uniform that the officer was a male horses private parts.

the judge dismissed it as a common term used by people in that area (and yes, they do have a more colorful language up there).
