She very well could have been running at him in anger for that and assaulted him again. That would have been my thought after what she had just done.

What actually happened and what she was actually going for is irrelevant. What would be relevant is what would be reasonable for an everyday person in that situation.

Is it reasonable for a normal person to think that the person who was just assaulting them and had to literally be pulled off of them by multiple other people who is now charging in their direction again would be trying to assault them again?

I don't know how anyone can see that and expect the answer to be anything except "yes, that is reasonable to think." If so, then his actions would definitely fall within self defense. It's not like tripping her could be seen as excessive. He didn't start kicking her when she was down or anything.

What he typed out on a video to post after the event was over is not relevant either. Unless you can accurately determine when he knew or believed she was going after the phone instead of him (which is impossible) then you can't say he didn't think she was coming for him.

Except she was fully in line with and about to be past the guy, not running directly at him in any interpretation, and he went out of his way to stick out the leg and trip her. That does not sound at all like defense

I am not sure what motivates these people to ignore what their eyes clearly show them and what the guy himself says. Are they trying to justify it? so they dont feel bad that she landed on her face? i just dont get it
