I brushed passed someone and got accused of pushing them "assault" pfffft.

Funny thing is they found me guilty of assault and gave me community service and a £400 fine, but if i dont pay them their money then they send me to prison.

so

"assault" someone = fine.
Dont pay them the goverment there money = prison

That sums it all up for me and the UK juditial system.

So because you pretty much shoulder bumped someone you got charged with assault? Thats crazy. People are getting more and more pathetic these days. No offence to anyone living over in the uk (i'm sure it's a nice place to live) but the laws over there suck. (and yes i know how it's getting over here in the usa [no]) Been reading some stuff and it just amazes me what you can and can't do. Like if someone assaults you and you fight back, you can be charged with assault also. If someone breaks into your house, you can't touch them much less forcibly remove them w/out fear of being charged with assault or something along those lines.
