Joe Mixon Video Released

He could have easily walked away and never went near her or her friends. You can see he says something to her male friend that she did not like so she barely shoves him. His reaction was over the top. Imagine if that was your mom, daughter, or girlfriend?....hell, no one should be done like that.

He is a POS and Stoops is a POS.

OU has a culture problem with looking the other way with some of the criminals that they recruit. Stoops should be ashamed to condone this kind of crime and still keep this thug on the team. But hey, he can play football, so he has a different set of rules at Oklahoma. Unbelievable.

I'm pretty sure Bob made him write "I will not attack another girl when there is a camera present." 100 times on a blackboard somewhere in the athletic facilities. They wouldn't let him off the hook without some severe consequences would they?
 
I don't know if this has been discussed yet, but, does anybody find it odd or peculiar in how nonchalant the other patrons act after the punch and especially the employees of that cafe. Nobody other than the guy she walked in with and two girls rendered aid. Just weird and disturbing.

Kinda makes me appreciate the University of Minnesota right now. They suspended 10 players over an alleged sexual assault. The prosecutor elected not to file charges due to lack of evidence. But because the administration believes the players at the very least violated elements of their code of conduct, they are suspending these ten players. And for now anyway, they are willing to sacrifice playing in the Holiday Bowl, which is a BIG deal for Minnesota football.

I did notice that. I was screaming at the video "why are you all just watching"!!?? How can you let someone get hit like that and just sit around like nothing happened? At least call the law....help her......watch him to see where he goes or what car he gets into...something. I thought Mixon was bad before but seeing that video.....no NFL team should ever give him the time of day. And can you imagine a company hiring him and the blowback? And all he got was a fine and communitys service? I wonder if it had been the judge's daughter if he would have felt the same way?
 
Let me be clear that a man should never hit a woman unless he is in real danger imo.
Now on to the legal side of things, she did initiate the physical contact by pushing him then hitting him in the head/neck area. He hit her back and then leaves. Legally, he defended himself. I think it was completely morally wrong but legally he did nothing wrong in that video.
Yes, he could have walked away and sued her for assault. Again, to me it was very d-baggish.
 
Maybe the conference presidents need to institute a policy whereby if a thug player does something like JM did and his coach is an amoral POS and the University president refuses to step in or if the punishment doesn't fit the crime the conference steps in and disciplines the player. If the school refuses they get fined a huge sum.
 
Stoops and OU just got roasted on ESPN over this and Westbrook. Rightly so. The world sees you for who you really are, $ooners.

Exactly.
 
No legally he did not defend himself. That was the text book legal definition of assault. Well in Texas anyway. I have witness similar shove, punch, counter punch in high school fights and both of the students were charged with assault.

He got pissed and hit her. Anybody not seeing that just does not want to see it. I was raised better than the crap I am reading. He could have just wrapped her in a bear hug and asked for help if he was scared of her hurting him. Good grief.

No. In order to argue self defense, JM would have to convince a jury that he was at risk of great bodily injury or death without any means of escape.

This entire argument about he was legally defending himself is idiotic. That's not how self defense statutes work.
 
The OU BOR did not know someone snuck a camera into their secret meeting about this latest incident....

You can say she initiated the physical contact if you want, but that isn't quite accurate. He does the punkish lunge twice at her to get some sort of response giving him an excuse to deck her. You can't honestly watch that video and believe she was the aggressor unless you are searching for a reason to defend this thug.

Sure looks like it fits to me & according to your link as well.

D. A person who is not engaged in an unlawful activity and who is attacked in any other place where he or she has a right to be has no duty to retreat and has the right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force, including deadly force, if he or she reasonably believes it is necessary to do so to prevent death or great bodily harm to himself or herself or another or to prevent the commission of a forcible felony.

You really think a jury is going to buy the argument that Joe Mixon feared death or great bodily injury?:rolleyes:

Like I said earlier, in my opinion & how I was raised, a man NEVER hits a woman unless he's in serious peril. Was he in a life or death situation? Not even close. But my opinion and the morals that I was raised with do not necessarily reflect what is legal or not.

I was thinking that she initiated the physical contact first by pushing him. He should have left right then and there but instead chose to do a douche lunge, get hit then hit her back. How is that not considered self defense under law? Honest question because I'm not a legal beagle.
 
II wouldn't, but in this day and age how do you prove what someone feels at any certain moment? You can go into girls showers as long as you claim you feel like a female. Can't truly prove either way. Zimmerman felt he was in danger even though he instigated the confrontation. I guess what I'm looking for is where is the difference?

The key to a self defense argument is the belief that your life is in danger. It's not the "they hit me, so I get to hit them back" law.

It says "reasonably believes". If you were on a jury would you consider JM's belief that his life was in danger to be reasonable?
 
Wrong statute. That says physical force against an intruder. This is just a matter of assault. A person charged in an assault may not be the instigator of the fight. Often a person attempting to defend himself or herself from an aggressor may be charged with the crime. There is a reason Mixon was initially charged with assault.
