@InternetEh so far, it's mostly been prosecutorial overreach, I think. If you charge felony assault for a thrown sandwich, a reasonable jury can dismiss that as a ridiculous assertion without having to decide the crime was committed but shouldn't result in a conviction. I'd guess the jury didn't believe there was intent to harm, even if they agreed a sandwich was thrown. But, we're probably going to need some nullification, too, before all is done.
