Provocative hiss
Absolve & go great
Ridicule the mockery
Absolve & go great
Ridicule the mockery
Mahatma Gandhi was thrown out of a train in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa after being racially ridiculed. He never reacted back with aggression.
Gandhi employed the same strategy when he was repeatedly hissed and ridiculed by the then British rulers of India. He absolved them of all their misdeeds and fought for freedom in a peaceful way.

Its easier said than done...If everybody was like Gandhi, probably world would be a boring place to live.
