Assault requires (both): Defendant intends to cause the plaintiff to anticipate imminent, harmful contact to their person AND (2) Defendant's conduct caused them to anticipate such contact. (Defendant's ACTIONS caused them to think so.)

**What's intent?

Intent REQUIRES either: * Purpose (Desire) i.e. they wanted to make the defendant think that they were at risk of imminent harm to their physical person OR * Knowledge **(Substantial Certainty) i.e. they knew with substantial certainty that the defendant was going to think that.

So...

• Delaney says she is going to [redacted] and physically moves close to A's person with her arm raised while screaming.
• A ran from her, believing that D intended to harm her & that she was at imminent risk of D physically attacking her.
• A starts crying and tells D not to touch her. D says that she is not going to touch her, then chases her down the hallway with her arm raised.
• D did not touch her. D claims that she was not going to touch her and therefore is not responsible for harm to A.

Is D liable for assault?

Test: * D intended to cause A to believe that she was going to attack her. * D raising her fist, making oral threats, and chasing after A caused A to anticipate this contact.

Is the intent requirement met? * Did D have purpose (desire) to cause A to anticipate imminent harm to her physical person as a result of D's actions? OR * * Did D have knowledge (substantial certainty) that A would genuinely believe such harmful or offensive contact with her person was imminent (Did D knew A would think that D is going to hurt her)?

Application D DID have knowledge (substantial certainty). (A said this aloud.) * D DID intend to cause A to believe she was going to get physically attacked (whether or not D desired to attack her is irrelevant; D desired [intended] A to believe that she would be).

---> Did D's affirmative conduct cause A to anticipate... contact? * D's affirmative conduct DID cause A to anticipate such contact.

SO: (1) Is met. (2) is met. --> D had knowledge. Intent requirement is met. Therefore: Yes, D is liable for assault.*

Note

"The intent to make contact is a requirement for battery, not assault."

Putting a list of one's core values in the front of their notebook can be a useful reminder within their journaling or bullet journal practice.

In 2019, Carthusian monks went back to their values and decided to scale back their production of Chartreuse.

Believing in "government" REQUIRES hypocrisy, schizophrenia and delusion. One illustration of this is the bizarre and contradictory way in which social media platforms PRETEND to be against people advocating violence.

What would constitute a full list of the services of OpenETC? Is it just this website, or does it include email lists, chat rooms, a Slack room, other services? The CoC should apply to all these areas listed.

These are some generally useful guidelines, but it would be nice to have a section on where to go or who to contact for help and conflict resolution. What should someone who notices a violation do? Where should they turn for help?

Large portions of the material below this read more like a Terms of Service than a Code of Conduct. It might be more useful to split these into two pages to better delineate the two ideas.

When making a CoC, it's always nice to spend some time researching others.

Here's a copy of the IndieWeb's CoC, which I've liked. They also documented a list of other CoC's for other communities that might be worth looking at as well. Most of them have licenses for ease of cutting/pasting for reuse.

I don't see a license on this draft, but it would be nice if you provided a CC0 license for it.

This has very good examples of what we can incorporate in our team's Code of Conduct. Respect and responsibilities are the two that stick out most for me.

This may be my favorite line of the entire code of conduct! I'm doing my best to resist....
