The way I'm hearing things, you might not have directly threatened the kid, but you sure as hell intended to put some fear into him. Now whether that's right or wrong, apparently no one else gives a shit - but from what you said, the kid tried to stand up to you and GET you to punch him out?
That doesn't sound much like the reaction of a guilty party to me. The kid thinks he's done wrong, but the only thing he's guilty of is trying to do the decent thing in a bad situation. And I don't give a damn if it put a speed bump between you and your little girlfriend, you crossed a pretty big line going after him like you did.
Marie's got her own mind - and a few other folks' to boot. If she needs you speaking for her like some redneck defending his prize coon hound, she ain't nearly as strong a person as anyone thinks.
I told Summers, I'll go toe-to-toe with anyone that thinks they're going to get away with causing more violence in this house. Whether that's bringing guns in, hiding some Mafia ties from people, or throwing a kid around because your girlfriend was pawing all over him - it ain't going to fly.
If you think you've got some beef with the kid, legitimate or no, and you want to take it out on him - damned if I'll step in the way when the kid ain't even willing to defend himself. But you won't do it here. Not while I'm around, and I'm going to be around a long time.

Good job missing the point entirely.
I already explained what happened. I'm not repeating myself. I explained why it happened to someone who matters. You don't.
