Using a spit mask because you're afraid someone is going to vomit sounds like involuntary manslaughter levels of stupidity.

Not really. You can get a lot of nasty diseases if someone spits into your eyes. I don't blame the cops for protecting themselves against MRSA.

If they're spitting, sure. But the OP seemed to imply that they just thought they would vomit. People have died due to suffocating on vomit with these things on.
