As to the rest:
She DID walk away.  
His Buddies walked away when she went inside.
Mixon chose to escalate this. He didn't just find himself inside.
She pushed him away. Clearly.
He, in fact, did go at her when he faked a punch.
She slapped him.
He serves her the "shit sandwhich" she clearly deserved for panicing and trying to protect herself. 
The moral gymnastics you are doing here to make this girls face crushing not a big deal is really odd. Maybe there are different values associated with being a man in your environment?  Who knows. For me, his actions are an issue. Your milage may vary.

And you're right.  He didn't attack her in an alley  He walked into a brightly lit restaurant and blasted her in front of everyone and just calmly walked out.  

I DONT CARE what your race is.  You and I will never see this situation the same because your loading this entire thing up with perceived fake facts.  She called him over to the table and said something to him before walking into the door baiting him into the situation.  She shoved him and from that point on she is responsible for the results plain and simple.  The shove doesn't happen she doesn't end up with a broken jaw.

I am not playing some moral gymnastics because I understand that this situation is grey.  All you see is that a girl got punched and that it is wrong without even trying to understand how we arrived at this result.  In your narrative you skew every single fact of this situation to color her in the best light and make him into a sociopath villain.  I have repeatedly said that this situation was wrong.  Hitting her is not how he should have handled this situation, but you're not going to convince me he is some kind of monster.

One thing I know for sure is that your argument continues to break down when you and others like you take the moral high ground then try to paint me in the role of the villain.  If a person doesn't agree with you then they become your enemy and you start insinuating that i'm some lurking wife beater.  


To put this entire thread back on topic.  He has the talent of a first round pick and drafting him in the 2nd round is a good thing if your system can place extra effort into developing this guy mentally into a better person.  If not spare the headache and draft one of the many good backs in this draft class.
