Res supposedly physically abused his wife. From what I understand, she initiated the shoving. It could be that res thinks it is ok to shove a woman back who is a strong and sturdy specimen? He obviously did not think he was doing anything wrong. Physical aggression should never be part of any marriage. Why is it ok for a woman to physically defend herself from a man but it is evil for a man to physically defend himself from a woman capable of delivering significant bodily damage? How do we now this was not the case for res?
