I'm not sure how I feel about it but I can understand it - here they were gathering to celebrate the life of a man who gave so much to the country and two people show up who have both played big parts in demolishing everything Whitlam strived to achieve.

that really surprises me. 

i thought you out of all people would

think booing during a memorial service

was completely inappropriate and

disrespectful......but there you go...

there is time and  place for everything and

it was time to rise above differences and

show respect and dignity.

shame indeed.

They didn't get booed during the memorial service. Abbott got booed before and after.  During the service he sat like an irritated child who did not want to be there.

i thought it was obvious what i meant.

being booed during a memorial service ie

during the arrival at a memorial service -

whichever way you look at it - such behaviour

would be considered disrespectful during

arrival at a service,  in the middle of a service

or the end of a memorial service. totally

inappropriate at such an occasion.

very surprised at some ppl's attitudes.

abbott will be abbott. nuff said.

ppl should be able to show restraint in

certain situation.  their disgraceful behaviour

on this occasion is reflection of them.

still surprised at some ppl's views on this

while expected as much from others.
