From WTC to JSQ PATH train a person was playing some king of noisy shooting game with speakers on ( no headphones). It was clearly audible to next few people and was quite irritating. When I politely told them about it, they said to mind my business, we all are in NY, this is noise is very common where I am from? etc etc you know how it goes.And others around did not utter a single word. He kept on doing the same.
Should I have just walked to another corner of the train when this happened instead of speaking up? I did actually sensing its only me who is bothered and all others are comfortable with the situation.
I think us being silent in these situations reinforces this kind of behavior.

I've always wanted to sit next to someone and do the same thing they're doing (play loud music/movie/game).
But I'm a coward.
