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?

After I respected their leaving the plane in quiet respect, I'd turn to that scum sucking low life and asked what he did in the service. If his/her answer was "I didnot serve", I would tell him/her that that family's love one did serve. Their loved one fought for his/her freedom to voice an opinion openly. The departed service member did so without reservations. That the scum sucking weak kneed coward aught to deplane and kiss the entire family's asses in gratitude of their loved ones sacrifice. Then I'd place a call for the air port police to come to the scene of an assault by me on this scum sucking low life. And maybe I'd be happy to repeat the assault in front of the police, so their report was accurately filed.

I am a Vietnam Veteran and I can assure that I will be arrested for punching the lights out of whoever said it.

I have been on two flights that transported a soldier's remains and everyone exhibited the utmost respect to everyone involved.

Although there is a great deal of support for the military and military families, there are also many who feel that those in the military should receive no special recognition or perks. They have always been amongst us and unfortunately, there is little anyone can do to change their minds. Hopefully, there is a special place in hell for people who would think or say or do something that would offend anyone who's lost a loved one serving their country.

We perish for lack of understanding. A little education goes a long way.

I would grab that passenger by the scruff of the neck and drag that person outside to view the event. I would not say a word and not allow the passenger to speak either. When the event is over, I would drag that passenger back onto the plane, sit that person firmly back in their seat and instruct the flight crew to make sure that person is the LAST one off the plane. Words cannot change the actions of individuals, but sometimes, a change of perspective, can. Inside the plane, a person can look away and ignore what's happening around them. Outside, on the ground, as a witness, that person cannot look away...cannot ignore what's happening. If I am arrested for what I had done, I would proudly own my actions and accept the consequences of my actions.
