Can you defend your personal space ? ?

I’m curious what the law is legally for personal space . Example protesting, street preaching etc outdoors an people geting in your face screaming , spitting, or putting bullhorns in your face . Wouldn’t you have a right to have personal space without damage to your ears from speakers etc

    The law doesn't define personal space.

    The actions you describe are assault. Personal space isn't relevant.

    Spitting is a form of assault.  Yes, you can defend yourself from assault.
