All the outrage over a protester spitting on Emanuel Cleaver may be misguided.
This video seems to show that any saliva that landed on Cleaver was likely a byproduct of the man in the act of shouting rather than an intentional act to degrade Cleaver.
Video.
From Breitbart:
Rep. Emanuel Cleaver: "I said to this one person, 'You spat on me.' I thought he was going to say, 'Hey, I was yelling. Sorry.' But he continuing yelling and, for a few seconds, I pointed at him and said, 'You spat on me.' "
Editor's note: The saliva incident seems more inadvertent than intentional.
