How do you respond when the smoker looks at you and says “You got a problem?”

This validates my theory that you can respond with “brother, sigh in this economy?” to anything anyone on the street says and get away safely

I don’t stare or glare at them, so this hasn’t/wouldn’t come up.

I’m a subway rider and I haven’t seen people smoking anything on the train. Most of the CC stations reek of cannabis, but that’s a far cry from “people smoking crack on the train”.

Similarly, you may see people nodding on a train or bus. Also different from a person “shooting up on public transit”.
