That depends. If it was the sort of insult with a threat between the lines or even just a downright threat, I might consider calling the police or at least walking very quickly towards a secure area. If it was "you're ugly", I let it go. Either way it's usually best not to react - that can make things worse. I'm not saying you should let people walk all over you, but if you don't know someone, you have no clue what they're capable of.
