What would you do, if a passenger in first class "boo'd" a Gold Star family for being allowed to leave the aircraft first to receive their fallen son/daughter in the military?

The best way to deal with people like that is ignore them. You only admit their existence and you reinforce the behavior.

I would let those people off the plane first, 10 minutes before landing.

Ungrateful!! Nor worth having a battle of wits with an unarmed person.

I would LOUDLY demand silence and respect, and if they were not given, I'd probably react confrontationally, and quite possibly VIOLENTLY.

I'd give up my seat and thank the family.

Sit in silence until the fallen soldier's family was off the plane and if I was close, I'd call them an ungrateful asshole.

As soon as the family had left earshot, I would give the disrespectful, Joseph N. Welch's words to Senator Joe McCarthy at the Army-McCarthy congressional hearing, "Have you no sense of decency?" Then shake my head and turn away.

To shame the person boo'ing I would stand at attention and render a perfect salute. If the boo'er would be stupid enough to make more sarcastic comments I would then offer to allow the person to join the deceased.....if you know what I mean! If they threw mw off the plane for that I would go with my head held high.

Join nearly 2 million former and current members of the US military, just like you.
