Martin Gugino, 75, was shoved while approaching riot police in Buffalo causing him to stumble backwards and hit his head, resulting in a melt-down of intense fury on social media. Far from being an innocent old man as being portrayed by some, it turns out that Gugino is a longtime hard left agitator.
At the time of this writing, it appears that Guginos Facebook and Twitter accounts have been deleted. The accounts, which were researched by RAIR Foundation USA, revealed a seasoned leftist activist who had a self-described obsession with Cuba. Gugino has ties to radical socialist Catholic Worker Movement, which is behind the Witness Against Torture program, formed in 2005 to build awareness about torture and indefinite detention, focusing on Guantanamo prisoners.

He should be made to kneel and apologize.
+AND WHAT WAS HE DOING WITH HIS PHONE???
He walked up to the riot police line, and used his phone to scan up and down the two police near their radios
was he try6ing to intercept radio comm?
What? You mean he wasn’t a ‘peace activist’? lol
but he was still shoved.....charges against the cops are excessive tho...
shine the light on them. It is one of our better weapons.

Flashlight is your number one security tool.
Trying to care....
NOPE. Can’t do it.
Don’t care what happens to this old fool.
He flopped.
He approached the cops first.
Cushion on the back of his head and blood was fake movie blood.
I knew something wasnt right the first time I watched the video.
Anyone heard if the officer still has his job? Anyone?
Nah. Only alleged racis’ and apologists need to do that. Oh, and pander bears.
According to reports of bystanders, Gugino showed up to City Hall (the site of the protest) twenty minutes before curfew. He lounged around, chatted, and simply waited. The police announced their intentions several times.
At 8 PM, when the police moved, he jumped up, approached the police line, and the rest you can see.
Theres a cell phone video of a young man engaging Gugino minutes before his fall.
Kudos to this man - he sniffed out that Gugino was there to make trouble. They should make him a lead anchor on the local evening news (language warning)

If you are dumb enough to approach a line of armed PEOPLE, touch or gesture towards in ANY way, and had been warned to back off, a little shove should be the least of your problems.
Especially if he didn’t know where the Police may be coming from or heading to.
I realize a stumble is a stumble BUT if he is (as has been indicated) a professional agitator, that stumble may have been rehearsed.
His legs seemed awful ‘straight’ when he landed, not akimbo as a stumble usually causes.
Regardless, if one is going to open the door to the lions cage at the zoo, and walk in, don’t be surprised if a lion is going to ‘talk’ to you..
How can he be doing this if he's still in the hospital recovering ???? Or is he getting help ???
This was such a total obvious fake, set up...
And guess what?
All sorts of Freepers fell for it.
Heaven help us all...
This old Scumbag provoked an action by the police officers and then took the fall for maximum effect. He belongs in jail.
