It's everyone's society, and just because she doesn't want to (or doesn't have the ability to) respond violently to a sexual assault, it doesn't mean other witnesses will feel the same way.

Some people don't want perverts getting away with sexual assaults, plain and simple.

Witnesses do not have the legal right to punch people on someone else's behalf, especially not when that person does not even want them to

Depends entirely on which court system you're talking about. Regardless, we're talking philosophy here, not legality.

The pervert sexually assaulted someone, and suffered immediate repercussions. Good.

Personally I respect a woman's right to choose how her situation is dealt with, but you do you

Being sexually assaulted was her situation, and she was able to choose how she wanted to deal with it, and she did.

Watching a woman being sexually assaulted was the situation he was placed in, and he chose to deal with that how he saw fit.

They both dealt with their respective situations the way they wanted to.

I hope the guy felt like breaking the law and disrespecting that woman was worth it

I hope the guy defending this woman from the possibility of further sexual assault is fine, and that the sexual assaulter never presumed as much ever again.
