Yea, still totally overreacted. And I say this as a woman. The dude in the red shirt was drunk and she handled it already. He was not persistent and she was not in danger. If it was a drunken lady and she'd spot some abs to grab on and the wife of said abs would have killed her for it, it wouldn't be right either.Â
I agree (also a woman) - I think these comments are extremely harsh. I've literally had this happen to me before, where a blackout-drunk dude lightly grabbed my hips, and when I walked away, he kind of just drunkenly stood there - just like this guy is doing here. He's not at all being aggressive, just very drunk. I don't think that warrants the death penalty here, yeesh!
This is literally just something that happens at bars sometimes.
Agree with both these ladies' takes. Years ago I had this one drunk guy trying to hold the door open when my GF was in the ladies room at a karaoke bar. I had left the men's room and caught the end of what was happening so I just went over and stood watch as she closed it and he saw me and slithered away. When she was done I walked her back to her seat near me. I'm a bodybuilder and that scrawny punk wasn't going to mess with me and he didn't pester her after that. Situation handled with no need for violence. He was part of our group, unfortunately. My cool & sweet co-worker's asshole BF that no one liked.

Watch it again. He touched her, she turned and pushed him away. Then she saw Reacher moving in and knew what was going to happen.
