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?

I'd be added to the no flight list and be calling mom for my one time bail after the family left. But for the Grace of God go I.

Persons have a right to do as they please. Act professionally and move on with my business. Are you now going to stoop to their level and act unprofessionally and maybe escalate the issue? I think not.

Hopefully I would be in full dress uniform and I'd stand up,walk to the front of the plane,turn around and walk back looking everyone right in the eye and not say a word. It would become very quiet fast. If your dressed in civies do the same thing especially if your over six feet tall and 180 pounds. If your kinda short get up and ask if there are any vets on the plane and for them to stand up. You'll get at least two or three if not a lot more and then you can say "Please be quiet. That could be any one of us out there." Then sit down and it will be perfectly quiet. Be worth a shot in my opinion.

I would stand up and shame them then most likely if someone got smart I would slap the shit out of them. Most likely I would end up causing a full fledged brawl and it would feel so good to finally get some people's mouths shut.

First of all I would find the largest of them and he and I would have a conversation in the corner someplace quietly and politely! Second, if that didn't work I would find the cabin crew in every other passenger who even look like he's ever been in uniform and have a less polite conversation with these individuals!

Accept the fact that some people are just too self centered, ignorant, and totally lacking in any concept of the sacrifice that this family has made in defense of OUR freedom. Trying to reason with or explain to people like that is almost always an exercise in futility. But, as with many others that think as we do, I would extend the honor, dignity, and respect that our fallen brother/sister and their family has earned.

Honestly I don't know how I would react. But if I was the family then I'm not going to say how I would react because I already know. The person that disrespected that family is sick..

I hope I wouldn't do something that would get me on the No Fly list, but it would be close.

1st of all please someone say that this did not actually happen.. If I were to witness that I would probably loose my ever filipin mind.. I do not even want to think or say what I would do but probably it would not be pleasant.
