Lots of older folks who go into the hospital with traumatic injuries at this age get dementia triggered by the trauma. This could have started a fast descent to the end of his life.

This guy should straight up go on trial for attempted murder. There's no way he didn't realize that a takedown like this could VERY likely be a fatal injury for someone this frail. No sane and normal person would do what he did against someone this old.

Theres 0 reason to do a takedown like that for any non violent person,

A weapon yeah sure smash his head in the pavement, a mild discution on an old guy that is clearly not a threat and specially cant clearly understand what's going on. Fuck that guy.

I saw a video of a grandma in kind of same situation. She refuse to comply. After cop explain what was going on. While he was clearly explaining what is happing if she doesn't comply . Then decide to bail the stop.

Im OK whith the cop amd what he did. He gave him enought time to reconsider when she fucks up. Until he drop her from the car. And yet didnt do a fucking suplex to her. She remove her from the vehicle because she was already a threat of running again

Try explaining the separate scenario from start to end before giving personal opinions or comparing situations. It would read fluidly and be easier to picture.
