"That's somebody's mother, grandmother, aunt etc. I hope this elderly lady's family see this, and press heavy charges!! I would sue the the T for not stepping in and helping this elderly woman. Negligence for the elderly," another user wrote.
"I don't care what she said, who she's holding up but you don't put your hands on someone like that. There's other ways to handle this and use resources without doing this. Simply by recording and having proof of what's going on will be enough to show your boss, professor etc of the situation," a third user wrote.
