(33,643 posts)I'd arm myself, and say 'Bring it Fuckers!'.
But then that's me.
And I'm considerably less than 75, and not presently sitting in hospital with a cracked skull.
This is total bullshit, regardless of how I'd respond.

(22,363 posts)The elderly man who was violently shoved to the ground by cops in Buffalo can't go home whenever he's released from the hospital ... because there are threats against his life.
Martin Gugino's attorney, Kelly Zarcone, tells TMZ ... it's not safe for the 75-year-old man to return to his residence when he's healthy enough to leave the hospital ... because he's getting a constant barrage of threats.
We're told the threats are flooding in from folks who mistakenly believe a false claim going around about Martin -- that he's been arrested 300 times and has a long history of inciting riots.

(63,221 posts)The man is 75 years old with a head injury and can barely walk and these goons are threatening his life because he had the nerve to allow his head to crack open when the cops pushed him down to the sidewalk for no good reason?
What the hell is wrong with these people?

(14,856 posts)They blame him for their criminal colleagues' troubles, and they hate his guts. They won't lift a finger to help him.

(58,785 posts)undoubtedly understands and value the role he's played, even inadvertently, and very possibly only regrets not being able to handle the fall better. And he has many friends and supporters. He'll be okay.
