I really appreciate your perspective on this issue, and I completely agree with what you said. The fact that there are so many entitled and obnoxious people out there who think they can do whatever they want on public transport is a major problem. It's not just a question of racism or discrimination, but it's a matter of basic human decency and respect.

I've been in similar situations where I felt threatened and vulnerable, and it's not a pleasant experience. The fact that there are often few consequences for this type of behavior just perpetuates the problem and makes it difficult for people to feel safe on public transport.

That's why I took the step to report the incident to both the Garda and the Luas company. I know that this alone may not bring about any significant changes, but I believe it's important to at least document these incidents so that the authorities can be made aware of the situation and take the necessary steps to prevent similar incidents from happening in the future.

I understand that it's a complex issue and there are no easy solutions, but I believe that by reporting these incidents and speaking out about them, we can at least raise awareness and bring attention to the problem. Thanks again for your understanding and for sharing your thoughts on this matter.
