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 problem is the dirtball does it to get attention. My wife and kids tells me I have a Marine Corps look that scares hell out of them. So, the dirtball gets that look (glare) while I stand at attention and salute.

Use booming voice method and yell "At ease!" Eyes right(or left) attention to the colors! The vocal intonation of the command voice would cause a pause even to a liberal democrat. Stand at attention and remain until the flag covered coffin has passed. Accuse the disrespecting onlookers of not loving Jesus and voting for Bill Clinton. Further, I would question their salvation experience and report them to their last known Sunday school teacher. Parents would recieve a spot report with a recommendation that rations would be cut until further notice.

I hate to say it but I'd probably show my ass and get in trouble. I have already had one instance of a memorial being almost interrupted ( they weren't allowed close to the memorial and I purposely didn't give any pictures to the media. ) by that group of asshole so called Baptists that shall remain unnamed.

I suspect I would be banned from flying that airline, after I lectured the 99% who never leave the safety of their country about their self centered asshole conduct.

I would come to attention and salute the Gold Star family as they exited the aircraft.

Whether I stood alone or with others it would be Extremely Difficult for me to silence my tongue and remain civil. Very Carefully and with a distinct tone in my voice to get their attention I would remind them of the RESPECT that is MANDATORY for this Fallen Solider and that their actions are a Complete Disgrace and it must cease and that any further outburst towards the this Soldiers Family will be dealt with in any manner deemed appropriate .

I would ask them if they ever served or if any of their family members ever sacrificed for our Nation! Also to disrespect another American and their family when they've given the ultimate gift from our Creator their Life is pretty low. No problem they have 1st Amendment Rights but so do I and I'll use them to explain their disgraceful actions!

I probably would say like: "Shut the fuck up and show some respect, he sacrificed his life to for all of us, assholes!" and join them to recieve him. If i were the pilot, i would say the same thing and force those booing bitches to show their respect for the fallen hero.

I don’t think this would ever happen. American people are very respectful of the military today. In national polls the military always is chosen as the most respected profession in the country.

I don't mean to correct you. We all have our opinions and that is perfectly ok. Yes they have their 1st Amendment rights BUT this is not the time to express it. Unfortunately, I have to disagree with you. Right now, our military and veterans are SO TOTALLY DISRESPECTED around the country. Just look on the streets, way too many of the homeless are veterans! There is so little respect that a lot of our veterans won't admit that they have served our country. Or at least keep it hush-hush. Look around your neighborhoods, how many American Flags do you see flying from the houses? On my block, I am the only one. Rarely do you see more than one on the block next to mine. Most of the neighborhoods are totally flag-less.
