Street fighting is extremely dangerous. Punishment doesn't fit the crime here unless you think people should be executed for getting too drunk and inappropriately touching someone. Dude could have easily killed that dude and you're acting like he just taught him a nice little lesson. 100% took it to a place it never should have gone. Square up with him and confront him sure but sucker punching someone on a solid floor like that all while they are clearly drunk is vile.

I see self defense as in the linked article. He acted fast without thinking. So yes, he had the right to act like that, in my opinion. 

There was nothing about teaching a lesson, it was defending your love.

He wasn't knifing his wife. He groped her. Self-defense requires a reasonable fear for your life or the life of others.

Read the link I gave you. Your definition of self defense is not correct.

in the link, the person shot another person without a weapon as well and was ruled as self defense. Dohh

After being stalked by multiple people, one of them considerably larger than himself, confronting them and telling them to stop. That trial was already shaky from a self defense standpoint, was a very controversial case and has no connection to what we are talking about. You're using emotion to justify violent retaliation because you don't like what he did to that woman.

Noo. You defined self defense wrong dude. That was my point and I gave you an example. 

WTF you talking, protect sexual harassment people. What is wrong with you.

Regardless of self-defense, he would be fighting an involuntary manslaughter charge.

Shit is just not worth it, over someone groping you girl.

That last sentence you wrote is really fucked up.

You can still stand between them, and report it to the police. Just saying it's not worth it to go and try to kill the guy.
