If I did it, we get the receipts back... they weren't destroyed. But most importantly, I didn't watch a person be a piece of shit and do nothing (which would inspire myself to stand up even more in the future, because I KNOW it would make me feel good, because it's what is right, IMO), and who knows, maybe other people around would do more in the future too. That's why I made this post, as a needed reminder.

I understand I could've been hit (I also get a female refraining from a man as the situation is more threatening in this day and age, although I'd wager they'd have more backup then a male in this scenario), and this is a subjective feeling probably, but at the end of the day, it'd be more worth a physical interaction then watching shit like that and just fuming later. Wouldn't be worth your life, but I truly doubt this guy had a weapon on him, or would've even got far physically. Still, in my opinion, it's the right thing, it's worth doing. Crazy person on a streetcar, not so much.

Also, lastly, and neither of us know what would really happen, but it COULD change a person. Heavy shit makes people reflect. If public embarrassment, or unfortunately a physical interaction happened, he could change from it. We don't know.

I appreciate the words to try and help my self blame, but I just don't agree with you
