Its a good think you said "shouldn't" rather than "can't", because any number of laws forbid various kinds of offensive behavior.

Not everyone can "move on", which is why we have the laws we do. This is only peripherally associated with the present topic, but no one should imagine that offensive behavior is absolutely tolerated, or that people can only relocate themselves to solve the problem.
