One could understand the man’s passion for seeing his kids but he had no business pushing an old man. It’s all just a crying shame no matter how its sliced.
I’m starting to wonder about that pushing description. If the father wanted to see his kids with the Grandfather in the way, how does the Father get around someone blocking him? I think they were both in the wrong and handled it badly.
I’m in complete agreement with your last sentence.
We’re assuming he really did that. Not just there was contact in a shuffle, or the old man didn’t jump in front of him, necessitating contact just to get by him.
All we really know is that this old man apparently hated the children’s father and gave him the death penalty for a relatively minor offense.
