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?

This one's easy for me. After all of the family was off the plane, I would ask the flight crew if I could make a short announcement preferably over the PA. Either way, I would then thank the entire passenger cabin for their heartfelt support of our service-members and the respect just shown for their sacrifice. I would then also thank the passengers for their sacrifice of 1-2 mins and hope they are able to somehow heal as they go about their day - or something along those lines.

I would loudly question the intelligence, or lack there of, of everyone booing.

I would ask everyone on the plane, "Which one of you has the guts to stand up to pledge your life as this soldier did so that you can have the privilege to boo him for doing that. Stand up, Shut up and pay respect for this brave soul.

Yet the people that were doing the booing would be the first ones to expect someone to protect them in case of an invasion from a foreign country. They also forget they live in a country where they can do that, at least for now. I hope that when one of them loses someone close they get the same treatment. Makes everyone not want to defend the country with people like that in it. What they don't think about is that the way it is going and with help from these idiots they will lose the right even to exist. They think they have found their voice but just wait.

I would definately say something to the disrespectful peice of garbage that had the audacity to show so much disrepect in public. Unfortunality, this country is too afraid to do the right thing and put these cowards in their place. Not me, they're going to know exactly whats on my mind!
