if someone spits at you

So in your opinion there is a direct link between population density and common misbehavior? If it were so easily then why is half of Japan's workforce not running amok? The metropolitan area of Tokyo has the same amount of people as entire Malaysia and the ratio of public transport users is much higher than in SG. And yes, I am aware of the general differences between SG and JP and the flaws that every comparison has by nature.
You are making it too easy. Please note: there is no simple answer and solution to a complex problem. Many people in history thought so, now labelled as tyrants, mass murderers, war criminals, ex-presidents...
Aww, man... too bad we can't stuff this argument of yours to John Calhoun. That fella died already....

I just managed to recall something from sleepy science lectures during schooldays.

Don't worry. In a galaxy not to far far far away (or the future), each one would have their own lightsaber.
Just curious: What if I somehow reacted by "accidentally" punching him in the face when he was trying to spit at me, can I call it self-defence? After all, I am very allergic to germs (that are contained in those spits).

I think punching would land you under charge of intentionally causing hurt? But if you pin him down with intention to let the police arrest him, that shd be ok. Just make sure that u 2 accidentally fall together with his face smacked on the floor in the process. :bsmilie:
Just remember no additional striking after the culprit is on the floor.

But seriously, I am trying to imagine how my hands would react from instinct. My head would duck or turn and my hands may go up automatically to deflect him/the spit and my hands may very well indeed "accidentally" punched him "face-palmed" him.
You want to punch him while he is still trying (= attempting to spit)? That's hardly an accidental action nor anything in defence. Doesn't matter what you call it, but the attempt of spitting does not allow you to use physical violence as preemptive strike. But yeah, you may take a defensive posture and wave your hands frantically, if that is of any consolation to you
Your "allergy" would only matter if the person knew about that, hence he would abuse your medical condition. Every day you touch so many things with your hands, each one equipped with countless germs of all kinds. It's easier to pick up an infection there than from a few droplets of saliva.

Its just a thought and a very lame excuse of trying to find a reason to hit him.
But at the very least trying to do something I am immune to my own germs
Believe is something .. amazing ..:bsmilie:I am immune to my own germs
And then reality comes from behind with a big bucket of cold water ...
