I had that happen once, on the other side of the planet. Japan no less.
Offered my seat on a morning train ride into Hiroshima. The woman was obviously pregnant and was just squished in al la cattle car.
I looked at my friends next to me, and got up to let her sit in my spot. Some young freaky looking kid with purple/red dyed hair jumped on the spot. Words he didn’t understand were exchanged and was hauled off the seat by my friends.
All of the folks nearby who witnessed it clapped.
I hoped they understood what was said to the freaky punk kid as he was excised from the seat. He ended up scrabbling say to the next car.
The lady was so thankful as she had 35-40 minutes before she exited the train.
