While seniors are usually exempt from harm due to harming the elderly being a taboo, there are exceptions. A villain hurting a senior is practically guaranteed to be a Kick the Dog moment at minimum. Whether a hero hits a villainous senior depends on how healthy they are, how dangerous their scheme is, and the hero's morality. An elderly villain who's clearly in good shape is more likely to get attacked by a hero, a villain that plans on killing someone is also likely to get hit if there are no other options, and an Anti-Hero might not care at all if they're violent enough. Any video game that has an Old Master, Old Soldier, or Old Superhero as a playable character is likely to have this. Compare Would Hurt a Child, when someone is willing to hurt someone younger than them. If the harm is domestic in nature, then it's Elder Abuse. Contrast When Elders Attack and Never Mess with Granny, as well as Evil Old Folks, when a senior would harm you. |

In Season 5 of Samurai Jack, Aku instantly disintegrates the now-elderly Scotsman whom he sees as a senile old man taunting him to no end. Then again, what did you expect from the Master of All Evil? He’s no stranger to the mass murder of innocents—women, children AND elderly alike. | |

In The Great Mouse Detective, Ratigan gloats in song about having killed both elderly widows and orphans as part of his criminal schemes, and his climactic Evil Plan is to take over the British Mouse Empire and establish a tax hike to the children, elderly and the infirm that is heavily implied would be penalized by death. | |

Counterspell: When visiting an armory to get some loot, the keeper of the shop pulls out a sword after Black Mage suggests robbing the place. In response, Bruiser kills the man with one punch on account of him being old and feeble. Noticing how Bruiser got some XP from doing such, he suggests that Bruiser should punch more old people so that he could level up. | |

Kron from Dinosaur appears to invoke this trope by having some elderly dinosaurs like Eema the Styracosaurus and Baylene the Brachiosaurus "slow down the pursuing Carnotaurus'' due to them being unable to keep up with the rest of the Herd, just to try to "protect" the Herd and get them to the Nesting Grounds, even if it involves putting their lives at risk. | |

Walker, Texas Ranger: C.D. Parker, a retired Ranger, is often targeted by the villains in a way to try to intimidate Walker. This tactic, of course, only makes Walker madder. Season 6's "Forgotten People" plays this trope seriously straight. A corrupt nursing home administrator and her staff of rogue doctors and ex-con orderlies were using the home as a front for an illegal testing facility using its elderly patients as guinea pigs to create variants of an Alzheimer's drug originally banned by the FDA that they plan to sell to pharmaceutical companies to make a large profit for themselves since running a nursing home would throw off suspicion. Because of those experiments, nine patients had already died. However, an investigation into the nursing home is soon prompted when one patient, who was an old friend of Trivette's, is murdered by the doctors to prevent him from exposing their scheme, with C.D. going undercover as a patient and making a new friend who was also undercover for the same reason. With the corrupt doctors having killed two other patients— one who tried to escape the facility and another used in their experiments— C.D. and his new friend would have been next had Walker and Trivette not been alerted, thanks to a transmitter hidden in a bible connected to Walker's pager. |

The Powerpuff Girls (1998): In the episode "Fallen Arches", the Ministry of Pain comes out of retirement after several decades to commit crimes. Even though Bubbles and Buttercup are more than willing to stop them, Blossom refuses to let them because they have to respect their elders. The Powerpuff Girls get around this by enlisting Captain Righteous and Lefty, two equally elderly former superheroes, to fight the Ministry of Pain. It doesn't work out. | |

In the Avatar: The Last Airbender episode "Jet", the gaang meet with Jet and his Freedom Fighters. While Sokka does not trust any of them from the get-go, his distrust is cemented when he joins their patrol and finds Jet needlessly threatening an elderly traveler. When Sokka goes to tell Katara and Aang about it, Jet claims that the old man was a Fire Nation assassin sent to kill him and shows him a poison-laced dagger that he claims to have frisked off of the old man. Since neither Sokka nor the audience ever sees this knife on the old man's person, this is likely to be a lie. | |

In The Toxic Avenger, the titular monster hero goes on a murder spree towards every thug, rapist, pedophile, and bank robber in Tromaville and quickly becomes beloved by the people for it (it's a Troma film, so over-the-top violence and murder is the norm). When he is found dry-cleaning a seemingly defenseless old lady, the corrupt mayor uses this as an excuse to send the army and his corrupt, Nazi police commissioner after him, leaving out the fact that the old lady was a sex trafficker with a criminal record a mile long. | |

While the Fallout series doesn't have many Evil Old Folks, presumably because After the End, Everything Trying to Kill You, especially if you've screwed over many people in your youth, the few Evil Old Folks you will meet are not treated differently than younger villains by the narrative, and killing Father Elijah (or trapping him into an inescapable vault until the end of his days) is not treated any differently by the narrative than killing anyone else who has crossed the Moral Event Horizon like him, and with the Silliness Switch turned on, killing the Hell Grannies from Monty Python as they try to bludgeon you to death with rolling pins is not treated any differently as killing the other thugs in the Wretched Hive they operate from. | |

Discussed, exploited, and ultimately subverted in Digger with Boneclaw Mother, a Cool Old Lady who doesn't let age and blindness stop her from dispensing threats of violence against those who would harm her tribe. As she says, if someone were actually to agree to fight her, then they'd either get beaten up by an old blind lady or become known as the Jerkass who beat up an old blind lady. As a shaming tactic, it even works on a Knight Templar with urgent personal reasons to fight past her. | |

Master Detective Archives: Rain Code: The game's first culprit, "Zilch Alexander", is very much willing to target Zange Eraser, a senior detective, as part of their murder case. Multiple people are willing to harm the senior Amaterasu Corporation head researcher Dr. Huesca, for their own reasons. Yakou Furio, his killer, targets him due to Yomi manipulating him into doing so. Yomi Hellsmile, the one who manipulated him into doing so, was intending to kill him six months ago due to betraying him, but manipulated Yakou into doing so to keep his hands clean (and to prevent himself from dying too). Makoto Kagutsuchi, the CEO of the company, manipulated both of them by introducing Fink the Slaughter Artist to Yakou to aid their plan, as part of his own agenda to oust Yomi Hellsmile from power. |

Daredevil (2015): In "Speak of the Devil," Wilson Fisk has Elena Cardenas killed as bait to lure Matt into ambush by Nobu. Given what he knows about the time Matt saved a kid from the Russians, he correctly predicts that targeting the elderly will be enough to provoke Matt. In the last episode of season 1, Fisk murders his 73-year-old accountant Leland Owlsley, after learning that Owlsley participated in poisoning Vanessa. In season 3, Fisk spares the life of 77-year-old Esther Falb after learning the story behind the "Rabbit in a Snowstorm" painting. Too bad Dex doesn't seem fit to give the same courtesy, killing her offscreen. When Fisk realizes what Dex did, he shrugs it off with only mild disappointment. |

Futurama: Bender has been shown to have no qualms with causing harm to the elderly Professor Farnsworth, such as bending his spine backwards in "Bendless Love" or sawing his hand off to get to a satchel he's handcuffed to himself in Bender's Big Score. In "A Tale of Two Santas", one of the children's letters to Robot Santa read by Fry and Leela is from a boy whose grandfather was choked to death by Robot Santa with a chestnut last Xmas. The kid writes the letter to request that Robot Santa get his grandfather a coffin, complaining that Grandpa's festering corpse is starting to smell. |

The Emperor's New Groove: When Kuzco accidentally bumps into an old man unfortunate enough to be standing nearby during his opening song, Kuzco has the old man thrown out the window. Fortunately, the old man ends up comically wrapped up in some banners and unharmed, and this is just meant to show that Kuzco is a Jerkass, although he gets better. | |

Eustace and Muriel in Courage the Cowardly Dog are frequent victims of this. Each Monster of the Week captures them and/or attempts to harm them in any way they possibly can without a single qualm about their actions regardless of their old age. Of course, unlike Muriel, Eustace often deserves whatever horrible fate he receives since half of the Bagges' ordeals are due to his stupidity and stubbornness getting them in the mess, which is also helped by his immaturity despite his old age. | |

While not under the category of beating up old people, the owner's treatment of the elderly is anything but saintly. When the rest of the adults don't believe the kids, only Suga Mama does and helps them spring Papi from his Hellhole Prison, then the two go on the run when his escape doesn't go unnoticed. | |

Regardless of whether Delsin tells Augustine that he is a conduit or if he lets her move on to the others, she will proceed to use her concrete powers to "interrogate" the rest of the tribe, starting with the elderly Betty. | |

Warrior Cats: Villains occasionally attack elders; one example is in the first book when ShadowClan attacks ThunderClan and Blackfoot kills the elder Rosetail as she defends the nursery. Also in the first book, Brokenstar exiles all of the elders because he thinks they are too weak and a drain on the Clan's resources. |

Strong Bad from Homestar Runner is a jerk to everyone, including the elderly King of Town. Some of the things Strong Bad did to the King of Town include hitting him in the face with a scepter, sending him off a cliff (with some snacks), ripping off chunks of his beard, and lowering him into a cauldron of boiling butter, although the King of Town didn't mind that last one. | |
