There is a certain type of person who when they see someone do something that is different from what they are used to they feel the urge to self-righteously stop it and will invent all sorts of excuses to justify themselves doing so. They're the kind of people who call the cops on kids playing in a skate park. I'm pretty sure that was one of them.
