Question is, what are you going to do?
Your question implies 'ought'.
Inaction is the most popular choice for most human beings in matters which they think do not effect them directly.
What am I going to do? Nothing.When confronted with nutjobs, in-your-face theists and various other unwelcome intrusions, I walk away,or avoid them in advance if I can.
This may sound apathetic,which is misleading.I'm pragmatic, and acutely aware of the things over which I have influence and control. My days of satisfying but futile gestures are over.
