To me, the appalling part was not the shove, it was likely unnecessary but I do not think the officer intended to put him in the hospital. The appalling part is the deliberate lack of any help once he was down and obviously seriously injured. An officer who started to help was dragged away by his colleague. These officers did not live up to their oath and duty, not because he was shoved but because he was abandoned instead of receiving first aid. The fact that "EMTs are coming" does not relieve one of a responsibility to help an injured person. That is pathetic.

And certainly badRNG is correct that "I vas chust followink orders" is a very bad look. In addition, I doubt the orders were to leave seriously injured fellow-citizens bleeding on the ground.
