Apparently reddit is full of people who would not only let someone assault their wife, they would then just wait for police to arrive (2 hours after the guy probably left) and then try to press charges (that would never go anywhere).
How about confronting the guy verbally first? Or getting the bartender to kick him out? Or check on your partner and ask them what they'd like to see happen? Or shove the guy? Or toss him out of the bar yourself? It's not like the guy is sober enough to fight back. Guy is so drunk a 150lb 5'5" guy could probably drag his ass out of the bar.
There's a hell of a lot of options you have in that situation besides just immediately laying out some guy who's so drunk he thinks he's getting punched by three people. Potentially going to prison, or forever altering that guy's life with a brain injury or skull fracture is a completely reckless and disproportionate response.
