I agree. It's quite the stretch to think that his reason for moving schools in high school has anything to do with this incident.

And I also agree that he is responsible for keeping his cool when idiot fans try to provoke him. The fan is obviously a loose cannon and thinks he can get away with whatever verbal taunts he wants, but Smart can't do what he did and not expect to be punished. (I don't think he expected that, just saying)
