From TMZ:
Buffalo's Mayor is going after the 75-year-old man who was knocked down by Buffalo cops ... saying the man was sparking up violence among protesters.
Mayor Byron Brown seemed to justify the incident of police brutality during a Friday news conference where he referred to Martin Gugino as an "agitator."
Mayor Brown said Gugino had been a "key and major instigator" of people who'd been looting and vandalizing the city ... and because it was after curfew, police were clearing the scene "for the safety of protesters."
As you know, Gugino was standing all by himself -- away from any other protesters -- when an officer shoved him to the ground, leaving Gugino bleeding from the head and ear.
As we reported, 57 other officers resigned from Buffalo's Emergency Response Team in solidarity with the 2 cops who were suspended for the incident.
Gugino remains hospitalized, but his attorney says he is "alert and oriented."Those big meanie cops picking on a poor, defenseless old coot.

CTH noted what he was attempting on Thursday night as soon as the now viral video was being used by media to sell a police brutality narrative. [Thread Here] Today, a more clear video has emerged that shows exactly what he was attempting.

Pasto,
When my mother comes to visit, or a friend with progressing rheumatoid arthritis, we place our medium sized dog in a bedroom. We know that one small jump of "hello!" onto their frame could topple them.
I see elderly mall walkers wobble along with unsteady gait. They are unstable.
This man was not shoved hard in malicious manner, rather a "please get out of our way" type of shove. He was moved out of the way, not beaten, bullied or accosted with undue force. His age caused a lack of agile responsiveness to a small tilt in his frame.
I support the officers on this one. Meanwhile, they will get more adverse attention and a Deputy Sheriff who was just ambushed and killed will be a blip on the media radar.
