Tell that to my friend’s grandma. Latest arrest record at 80, for whacking a cop with her handbag at a protest.

Seniors don't have [at least some threat of physical violence].

Share that sentiment at your local VFW or AMVETS, and you will learn that propensity is not a prerequisite for proficiency. In fact, those who are most familiar with and capable of violence are usually the same who are most reluctant to employ it.

"senior" is a pretty wide range though. You can be old enough to get a senior's discount and still able enough to do most things. Maybe you aren't going to be doing 100 situps after jogging 10 miles, but march the streets and hold a rifle sure, and there's probably a good mix of ex-military in there as well as people who know how to make stuff go kaboom in unique and interesting ways.

Taking away their reasons to sit contently and die quietly might not work out as well as some think, but this party in particular is pretty good at thinking everyone but themselves are inept.
