How would you react if you were on a flight where a family was boo'd for being allowed off the plane first to receive their soldier's body?

I would pull my in flight snack of crayons out of my pocket, and take a bite. Then I'd start cracking heads while screaming Semper Fi! Oh wait I was an airwing pog. Nothing I would probably do nothing.
I would tell them to shut their bloody mouths and ask everyone else to stand up in honor of the Gold Star Family.

It wouldn't be pretty. Probably yell at the people booing with a knife hand, " you F*ckers booing don't deserve to be Americans" Then beat the shit out of the biggest fucker there and gleefully wait for the M.P.s to come get me. Now that's me. Nobody boo's a family with their loved one in the cargo hold.

Other than respect, today, does it matter when the family gets off the aircraft? It takes 30-45 minutes to UNLOAD the belly of an airplane. Getting a coffin unsecured, the transport vehicle in place and the military detail in place is 45 minutes minimum. My recommendation is have the immediate family in first class complements of the Airline and take them to a holding area until everything is in place. Now, let us be real, how many families can afford to accompany the body of a fallen family member from Dover, DE to their home of record or burial site?

'That casket contains your right to state your opinion, Let me shake your hand for doing so' or simply walk off the plane knowing that this country is in worst shape; kind of reminds me of how my father was received after Vietnam.

Say it ain’t so……….how could anyone be such an ass wipe ? To be honest, I don’t know what I might do, but I certainly would not stand by and let a turd disrespect a fallen service member and the family.

Interesting, I wonder what announcement was made by Flight Crew, I flew for 12 years every week, majority of Americans are always respectful of military and gold star families
