they're either going to or coming from a potentially dangerous encounter. if you're assuming all the protesters are peaceful, that's laughable. you can't know who's good and who's bad when they're walking up to you.

Dude they're in full riot gear and a clearly old man is walking up to them with a helmet in one hand and a phone in the other. If they can't see that there is clearly no serious threat to their life and limb and can't just calmly deal with him, given their major advantages in numbers and means to use force, and their reaction is to just shove him out of the way (and leaving him there) they are fricking terrible at being cops.

my assertion is that it's about 80% the cop's fault, and 20% the old man's.


Again, a laughably low standard you're hold these cops to. It's 100% on them.

would you walk up to them to return their helmet?

if your answer is anything other than "yes", then your answer shouldn't still be 100%.
