oomiss not that what I am to judge, but most of what you said is true, but you missed a major point. Of course you must be a mentch to everyone as in saying hello, offering your seat. And yes, to let some krum guy rattle off some shtusim is also menthclichkeit as long as you know you won’t be affected, or at least pretend you are listening. But when kavod HaTorah or talmidei chachomim or anyone who represents harbotzas torah is at stake, in a public matter ……. And a frum yid must know he is better than a fry yid even a tinok shenishba! It’s a chiyuv of makir es mikomcha – know your place! But that obligates him to be a better mentch NOT shtultz them out!
