Could my Oregon LEO or legal experts please chime in? If an adult sneaks up behind a person and hits them in the head/face with the intent of knocking them down, also known as "The Knockout Game", and that person lost a tooth, what Degree of Assault is that?

The ORS is confusing about if a weapon must be used or not to bump up the degree to a felony.

If I had to guess at wacko OR statutes, it probably depends on who is the knocker and who is the knockee. If the former is a member of a racial minority or anarchist group, then they must consider mitigating circumstances . Seriously, if there is a more cowardly act of violence than this horsebubblegum, I'd like to know what it is.

Politicians sending our troops to battle while not personally leading the way on the front lines themselves..... or politicians passing laws to disarm the citizenry and having LEO's carry out their will.... I could go on.

Jeez.... that guy is lucky he didn't pick the wrong person, who may have shot him right square in the "richard".

Just sayin'

The hits just keep coming Man accused of slugging 90-year-old woman is released from jail due to overcrowding

Man sentenced to 5 years' prison for punching Beaverton cashier, breaking bone in her face

So a fractured zygomatic bone will get 5 years in one case.

Loss of teeth has been ruled as not serious physical injury so unless there were other people involved as far as I know it would be Assault 4, a misdemeanor. You must remember that I have not worked the road for several years so take this with a grain of salt.

What if it's my two front teeth I got for Christmas?

Maybe if they get stuck in his hand and he walks away you might be able to also charge him with theft.

What does someone gotta do to get some real time for the knockout game? Punch a Judge?

Apparently Man who randomly punched judge, prosecutor and others in downtown Portland gets 4 years
