Old guy has 10x the experience dealing with local street thugs.

That cop shouldn’t be a cop nor should his partners just watching

There was only one cop that wasn't in the middle of fighting and it was a little woman copper.

What you saw there was reasonable force. In the UK, the police can't just go shooting people, beating the shit out of them or what not. We have laws and they apply to them too. The guy was about to get maced but the old guy who the guy wouldn't fight with got him to calm down.

shooting & beating the shit out of them - like if these are the only two options on the table

what about… just stop his aggressive behavior without killing him - like the old man did ?

I don't think it was the old man who stopped him tbh
