Of course I do. But I was answering the question you asked about why should pulling on a jacket be considered an assault. Do you not see the difference?

Do you admit you were wrong, and that (outside this incident which appears to be legally an assault) there are times when you could actually face prosecution for just pulling on a jacket?
