Because Hale did not pour beer on Reese until after she returned from the restroom, one must differentiate between self-defense and mere revenge.

Brenda Hale will be just one of 12, but she represents a whirlwind of change for a body preserved for decades as one of the most homogeneous organs of the British establishment.
On the bench Hale has criticised the inbuilt bias of the current system for choosing judges, with its dependence on "soundings" from those already there, producing a judiciary which is "not only mainly male, overwhelmingly white, but also largely the product of a limited range of educational institutions and social backgrounds".
All agree she is formidably clever, with a wide knowledge of the law, yet one retired law lord confided: "She's a bloody awful judge, you know." Another judge reckoned that while she had not been a particularly good judge in the high court, she had performed well in the court of appeal.

 Melanie Phillips’s Articles » The judicial sister
Dame Brenda was the principal architect, for example, of the Children Act, which by giving children ‘rights’ has helped destroy the authority of adults and made it impossible for teachers, social workers or even parents physically to restrain children from mischief without the child reporting them to the police.
Dame Brenda was behind a bill in the nineties –which was eventually withdrawn - which would have given live-in girlfriends who had left the mutual home the right to win a court order to move back, or even have their boyfriends evicted from their own property.
And Dame Brenda was behind the ultimately doomed attempt to remove the concept of fault from the divorce law, which would have given the marriage contract less significance than buying a second-hand car.

Hale said his resignation avoids the political turmoil that occurred when Navajo Chairman Peter MacDonald was ousted in 1989.
Arviso countered: "This is a bold attempt by Hale and his administration to control how this news is covered in the Navajo Times." With Hale's resignation, both attempts at censorship are apparently moot.
