KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) -- Police said they arrested a man for spitting on two-time Academy Award-winning actress Jane Fonda during a book-signing stop in Kansas City Tuesday night.
Fonda, 67, spoke at Unity Temple, in The Plaza shopping district, about her new best-selling book, "My Life So Far," and her new movie with Jennifer Lopez called "Monster-In-Law."
At about 9 p.m., police said, a man who had been waiting in line for about 90 minutes, passed a book to Fonda and then spit a large amount of tobacco juice into her face.
Michael A. Smith, 54, was arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, which is a city charge.


This is unacceptable. I don't care who you disagree with, people with any sort of decency do not do things like spit in people's faces. Just like with this whole liberal pie throwing thing that has been going on. I understand people's feelings of outrage over something, but to act like a idiot does not speak well of your cause.
