I have to admit, I was worried.
Shame on me; I know better.
Thought some of you may be interested in a few photos from today’s overwhelmingly peaceful viewing.
Hopefully the funeral tomorrow is equally respectful.

This is so perverse. Touring a mans body around with nothing more than political gains being hoped for.

Texans know how to be respectful regardless of whether we agree with someone or not.

Not yet

His family got to have 3 wakes & a funeral while the rest of America had to forgo that for their family members that died in the last 4 months

He’s from Houston.
He’s being buried here.
So today wasn’t exactly a “tour.”

The Minnesota (and was there another city?) viewings?
Yes. I agree with you 100%.

T shirts at a funeral?

This is demented. I’m guessing the next black man killed by a white cop (because those are the only black lives that matter) is going to get a glass-top coffin like Lenin and become a permanent “civil rights” tourist attraction.

His corpse is on a McCain funeral farewell tour around the country.


Putting that go fund me money to work with the gold casket.

It wasn’t a funeral.
But the thought crossed my mind as I was viewing these photos: “Where the heck are all of the shirts being sold?”

I guess entrepreneurs gonna entrepreneur?

Wait, are they just carting his body across the country for multiple open casket funerals? Creepy
