In what world is assault with a dangerous weapon a petty charge?

Eh, kicking someone with a shoe on qualifies as ABDW. I’ve seen it charged for throwing a plastic fabreeze bottle. It’s really up to the police how they want to charge it. The point is she wasn’t convicted tho.

So fucking true! My aunt used to be a bartender and one night a couple gets into a fight and the lady is throwing coasters at her husband and she was charged with ABDW. The charges were later dismissed.

If that’s true I’d call them unfounded charges, but certainly not petty.
