Any detail gleaned about either the event itself or the players can provide perhaps important context.
E.g., now I hear that this guy was a busy-body constantly harassing people about missteps with handicap zones. Like a cop who feels the power and likes rubbing it in. Not that these people were OK being in the space, but the point is it sounds like he tends to be pushy and perhaps a bit of a power-hungry do-gooder.
Ipso facto, his trigger finger may be in question.

The old guy shouldn’t have been attacked but I gotta say, if I’m packing heat the mouth stays shut.

I may agree with you about the guy's spiritual life or personality. It wouldn't surprise me. But that's not evidence that he broke the law in that incident. On the video, we see him shooting off his mouth, which is legal--and no one has claimed he was threatening anyone, as far as I know.
The only judgment we're entitled to make about the busybody's trigger finger can't be gleaned from whether he earned a reputation as a pain in the butt on some other occasion. The video shows an old guy being approached by a woman who is immediately joined by a man, who blind-sides the old guy and sends him crashing onto the cement.
If there's other credible evidence that the busybody was a mortal threat to the hulk or his mistress, that's another story. But I don't see it on what's shown.
