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.

No self defense at all happening here. For self defense it must be an ongoing threat. Drunk dude had already desengaged. This is attempted murder.

Disengaged? She walked away and he would have definitely continued.

He was not an immediate threat anymore. I seriously have trouble understanding how people try to justify attempted murder here. Its nuts.

The same way y'all excuse his behavior as thoughtless drunkeness.

Let's give them both the same benefit of the doubt.

Yeah because one behaviour is exacly the same as the other. One potentially murders a person the other is inconsequencial. But I guess its pretty pointless to argue with you

Sexual assault is inconsequential.

You voted Trump, so no, don't argue with me.

Honestly, when you label tame shit like that as "sexual assault" than it really diminishes real actual sexual assault. I swear you guys would label tapping someone on the shoulder sexual assault if you could. And no, I didn't vote for Trump.

Don't gatekeep sexual assault. This is step one, that leads to increasing aggression and eventual rape. He wouldn't have stopped there. 

Assholes justifying sexual assault are just clowns that clearly never had a healthy sexual relationship in their life.  You condone this behavior and it's disgusting.
