She also bears responsibility in this confrontation. It was not one sided. She did not back off, she did not seek assistance from others because she was scared. She moved into him, pushed him, and struck him first. So she could have handled it differently as well. She is not an innocent victim. She got the worse end of the confrontation, but she also escalated it instead of trying to diffuse it. They both share blame. I will not hang him for that as long as he does not repeat anything near that action.
So if a girl is approached by a guy and she turns him down. He can then follow her and harass her, and not expect to have her push him away and slap him? And if she does then he can slug her?
C'mon Man!
I hope you are better than that!
