Thousands of mourners were gathered to watch the Queen's coffin make its final journey, after having queueing through the night to bag a prime vantage point. One of the attendees attempted to jump the barriers onto Parliament Street by the Cenotaph and was arrested by police as the late monarch's coffin emerged from Westminster Abbey just before the full procession got underway.

My Point was everyone will find something weird doesn't mean they are right or wrong or anything Yes, and my point is that you use this idea to legitimise not having to justify or defend the actions, views and behaviours of others that are being called out. Like that person that said seeing the queens coffin was the best thing she's done when she's got two kids rightfully got called out for saying it, just saying 'well, people are different aren't they' isn't adding anything to the conversation and just seeks to circumvent any valid criticism. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
