The examples she used definitely detract from her main point. But maybe she wants to point out that she never knows when someone hitting on her is going to turn into a harrasser? I'm not sure.
She does say that the guys who regularly approach her don't take being brushed off very well.
When I take the bus, I am usually on a commuter express where you get a group of regulars who all talk to each other. On the local bus, I'd be more leery of talking to strangers for the crazy factor.
