It's a dangerous game. 'Behaviour' as judged by a flock of slightly up tight Daily Mail types is clearly different than that judged by someone more socially relaxed. People have a tendency to group their responses and to respond to the prevailing mood too. I'm not saying that witnesses can't be useful in determining motive or aggression for example "he was running at the victim shouting and raising his fists, he made no attempt to move away or calm the situation" etc. But being drunk is not so straight forward.
