Man splashes drink in her face = bit of an over reaction with no context
Woman goes to attack man = dramatic escalation, but no context
Man pushes woman away = self defence
Man kicks woman whist she is down = awful. Terrible thing to do. Still no context.
Man goes to leave = should have just left
Woman grabs bottle and some words are exchanged = escalation/self defence depending on the context
Man pushes women down again and leaves. = self defence followed by de escalation.
I still think it is more likely the man is in the wrong. But given what actually happened you cant claim self defence when you started the fight.
At least thats how it looks with no context.
Would you feel the same if she had actually managed to hit him when she tried to attack him. Would him pushing her down seem more justified in your opinion? Or is there really no way you could view this any differently?
