Man Coughing on Gas Pump Handle Mentioning Coronavirus Spread Arrested

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

An Arizona man has been arrested after video footage emerged allegedly showing him coughing on a gas pump handle and talking about spreading the coronavirus.

Yuma Police said an investigation was launched on April 4 after the department received multiple reports about videos posted on social media showing a man coughing on a handle while referencing the COVID-19 outbreak.

The suspect was later identified as a 23-year-old male from Winterhaven, California. During police interviews, the man said he got the idea after seeing similar videos which had been posted online in recent weeks.

Charges of unlawful use of an infectious biological substance will be sent to the County Attorney for review.

2. Well then,

You just get you an idea and you do it cuz you saw it on the Intertubes and it just sounded right because you don't seem to have the capacity to think about it first. Oh, and the results? Well, nobody expects results, huh, pardner.

We seem to be devolving, now.

3. What About Public Endangerment?

Doesn't every state have a misdemeanor for that? Geez, the spiderman building climber got convicted of that, and he was less likely endangering others, directly, than this idiot.

8. No Argument But A Misdemeanor...

...could be the plea deal & avoid a trial at a time when courts are essentially nonfunctional.
He pays fine, does service, and "next time it's a felony, kid".

9. True Enough, Courts Are Shut Like Everything Else

And public execution is not really a serious proposal. It's just that I am something of a traditionalist at heart....

10. waiting for the case where a douche coughs on someone intentionally and gets his ass beaten to death

or close to it and then person who was coughed on gets to invoke "stand your ground" or self defense.
