No... The problem is not with the way... The problem is with HIM resisting and not complying...
What do you expect at some point? they asked him multiple times to leave and he refused. And HE hurted himself by resisting like crazy when they were pulling him out... There is no many way to remove someone from a plane... 

1) You ask nicely
2) You ask nicely again
3) You keep acking nicely because you know... Being nice...
4) You call the authorities... And they ask less nicely
5) They most likely try another time...
6) Then what? They pull your out, forcively... And if you resist like a moron, you can hurt yourself... Oh surprise

I mean at some point people needs to get responsabilities for their stupidity...

It is like pulling a gun on a cop and cry later because you got shot... (well in that case it would be the Internet showing pictures of the dead body and being chocked at the "brutality" and how "violent" the police is, right?).

I'm really sorry for this dude, it sucks being hurt in any way. Really. But it is 100% his fault. And yes, you said it this nothing to do with the airline policy.

7.) Cause his head to slam into an armrest, knocking him unconcious with lots of blood gushing out.

Where do you draw the line? If they had killed him? Maimed him? Would that still be ok? There is a line to be drawn somewhere. And if three cops can't get one elderly man off the plane without busting his skull in, they are in the wrong line of work.

Also, they clearly don't think this was ok, because the police lied about it in their statement, saying that he "fell".
We'll see how many courts will rule in their favor after video evidence showing how he "fell".

The line is simple, when asked to de-plane... De-plane... You comply to any request esp. when issued by authorities... If you want to complain you do it AFTER.
So what do you think the police should do when someone refuses to move? They just let him in, right? Fuck the authorities because the dude feels like this is what's right for him? Can you see how this is a very dangerous point of view? 

It was an accident and he resisted and got hurt. They did not throw him on the harmrest. It is 100% his fault.
