It's not that i can't see what you are saying, my issue is that by looking at her choices and her behaviour, we are essentially introducing into the conversation the premise that if she did not that, she would not have been assaulted, therefore she was responsible for being assaulted, therefore hunt is not 100% to blame.
Now on an individual case by case basis, this may even seem logical, but on a societal level, it allows for the focus to be taken away from from the perpetrators choice to be violent when there was no need.
If it was a 19 year old dude, my stance would be the same. The Hunt thing for me, is not a gender issue. It is an assault, and an assault that happened solely because Hunt chose to respond with violence to verbal insults and what looks like annoying behaviour. He could have went back to his hotel room at anytime. He chose not to.
