Joe Mixon shatters a girls face. The Norman police department hides the video. OU President David Boren and Stoops watch the video and then allow Mixon to remain with the team. A lawsuit by local media forces the Norman PD to release the footage.

I'm not in favor of shattering women's faces, but if I put my hands on Mixon like that he would have shattered my face too and no one would have cared because I don't have a vagina. Mixon used too much force when he retaliated, but I don't think he was wrong, in principle, for defending himself. If women want equality, getting your face shattered when you grab an elite athlete's neck comes with the territory.

What Mixon did wasn't right, but there was a LOT more to the story. That's why he was allowed to stay.

While you used poor wording in your response, there is a legal term for what that video showed. It's called "mutual combatants". She struck him first, he responded. Both should have been either arrested or issued a summons. And I agree with the equal rights part. Having a vagina does not preclude you from legal ramifications, with respect to assault or battery.
