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?

Loudly ask the booers "What if that were your kid?" orask flight attendant or captain to explain the reason and take their time about doing it>

I would definitely ask them kindly and the plane staffing to silence them and the whole plane in regards to this situation. This is the United States and We Respect Fallen Soldiers and Their Families!

I have been on flights were the airline announced that a gold star family member was on board and asked the passengers to respect their loss and to stay seated until they disembarked. To the airline, why weren't the gold star family members given a free first class seat?
As for the individual that booed , ignorance and disrespect is not acceptable as a first response. What has happened to the mortalities and common decency of the American citizen?

I would stand up and tell everyone to shut their god-damned mouth's. I would look at each and every one and call them selfish and undeserving of the rights and privelegdes aff9rded them by the service of the individual that died for them. I would point out, soldiers, sailors', airmen and Marines do not like wars any more than they do. I would say if you don't want to give them the respect they deserve after their loved one paid the ultimate price, then they should be forced to go into military combat arms and serve on front lines.

"Gently" but firmly inform them that they have the right to use their guaranteed right to freedom of speech to show their disrespect because the child that family is picking up died for that right.
