OP had a bad experience one day
Do you have a reading comprehension problem? OP wrote: “I travel and this is the new normal at libraries throughout the U.S.”
That indicates more than one, understand?
The whole issue is about rudeness and people having no consideration for others. The next time you go to a movie theater and there’s a baby crying or people who won’t shut up I hope you remember what you wrote above. You sound very entitled and selfish.
If you want perfect silence go home
Remember that you said that the next time you go to a movie theater and there is a baby crying or people who will not shut up.
