If he yells at them and just talks emotionally about nothing that makes any sense, then yes. That's what they'll think.
Little might change if only one or two ever talk in a reasonable and calm way to their elected officials. But at least having a reasonable presentation of what was wrong and what needs correcting or action will at least be starting the ball rolling. And the more the wind shifts, the more the politicians will take notice.
Media will love to side with the injured person no matter what. But still reasoned and calm thought is needed. Not a old man screaming at the clouds.
