Absolutely.
Some people are just super abrasive like that. Personally, I am VERY cautious with putting my hands on other people. it's a big deal to invade their personal space like this.
Restraining a guy trying to button his jacket - while at the same time pointing a stern finger in his face, lecturing... How many getbiggers would tolerate a person doing this to you?
I think this perry dude is a bully. Something tells me he wouldn't be putting his hands like that, on a KimboSlice-looking-MFer at a campaign event.
I guess he just sees it as acceptable to push around an old man like that.
