intimidate her into not exercising her right to free speech. She is in a public place. I don't care what she is saying. She has a right to say it. Clearly, that man is attempting to intimidate her into leaving or at least to stop talking.

I would not touch him. Not on your life. I would simply step up and whisper quietly in his hear the words I wrote before. I have done it before at Planned Parenthood clinics, when someone was trying to intimidate someone seeking medical care there. It works quite well. If nothing else, it distracts the bully so the woman can go on about her business there.
