I wish I could have been there... thanks for this video

Yes, the idea was to pay respects rather than bring along the camera as if going to a sporting event. I was stunned at the crassness of the crowds for behaving in such a manner, but then, that's modern society for you: completely unaware of the social graces.

they meant no harm and never tried to insult him like that. They just admired him and try to capture him in his last moments.

i was there, almost fainted from the heat.. i think the idea is to pay respect and not photograph as he goes by...

"i think the idea is to pay respect and not photograph as he goes by..."

I understand your reaction, but I think in all fairness, the casket was laid in state for days at the Capitol. People can't be blamed for wanting a picture of something so momentous.

[irish89055]

hmmmm, maybe, set your dvd to record??? I wish I did, would like to see video of the day. I'm a big photo taker, just not for this type of occasion. Guinevere... You said it ALL

[ancestralyuba]

I remember news reports that people spontaneously broke into applause on the streets of Washington as the casket went by, but I never saw until this video.

Godspeed Mr. President.

May he rest in peace, When God closes shop on this system of things what an honor it will be to meet president reagan, and all the those whos lives were spent in service to others.
