Drunken violent brawling justifed because they were provoked!

Here we have 3 young women 2 single mothers, involved in drunken brawling outside a night club attempt to justify their violence by claiming they were provoked into being violent! Well as far a domestic violence, family violence, intimate partner violence, child abuse etc is concerned perpetrators must never claim "provocation" as an excuse, and exactly the same principle applies here.  One wonders what arrangements were made for care of their children whilst on their drunken rampage? or when after this they would resume responsibility for the care of their children, possibly still in a drunken or hung over state. Why is such maternal irresponsibility considered acceptable?
