Don't have too. I spent Ten years as an aux LEO with the RCMP
- if you hit someone who can't hit back what their definition of that is. if you were doing it, would they tell you to stop? if you didn't, would they stop you?
Why can't they hit back? Arms tied behind their back or fear of charges? One is gutless violence the other is failure to defend ones self. Self defense is legal.
ask them if they'd arrest someone for sparring.
If it was causing a disturbance or disorderly conduct YES. A lot of times people will fool around in public but it may not be appropriate.appropriate. Usually when asked by a LEO to back it down they will unless they are cocky and then things generally take a downward spiral.
Bottom line is you argued the definition of the word "sparring" and I showed you that it is indeed correct to use it in the manner in which it was used. Go argue with Webster's.
