Decent question

Walking by a bus stop today, I was addressed by a woman waiting there:

Woman:  “Excuse me, sir?”

Me:  “Yes?”

Woman:  “Can I ask you a question?”

Me:  “Sure.”

Woman:  “[Hesitantly:] Decent people don’t make fun of other people, right?”

Me:  “Riiiiight.”

Woman:  “…”

Me:  “?”

Woman:  “…”

Me:  “Is that your whole question?”

Woman:  “Yes.  But they don’t, right?”

Me:  “That’s right.”

Woman:  “Thanks.”
