Why is it bad to be civil to someone who is trying to take advantage of you? You can even be civil to someone attempting to use violence against you. Being civil does not imply that you need to allow them to be violent or take advantage of you.
Replying to @perrymetzger
Yes, you're right that you can defend yourself against bad actors without being rude. But there's totally a kind of person who thinks more "civil discussion" can resolve any situation, and doesn't ban/call security/etc until far too late.
