I would rather donate my money to charities that run things like food kitchens (which I do when I can) and my time to help raise awareness to improve the situation for all (when I'm able).
Also, my 'justifications' would not be anything like this in the moment. They would consist of 'holy fuck there is a stranger talking to me, what do they want, i'm going to get hurt, something will go wrong, i can't breathe, i'm going to die, why did i ever leave the house, hurts, breathe, RUN'. Chronic social anxiety disorder. You have your opinions and I respect them, but have my own. I'm done with this conversation because it is upsetting my anxiety too much and I don't want to have another panic attack today. You do your thing, I will do mine and hopefully between us people will get the help that they need.
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
