I think there is a time and a place for everything, but to turn up at somebodies funeral, whether it be the Queen or not and start shouting and demonstrating is in the very least very poor taste.

How many of us would turn the other cheek if these idiots turned up at our mother's funeral and starting doing the same, these people are sick in the head and are attention seekers.

Next week there will be something else to draw attention to themselves.

There may be a time and place for their protests, but now is not the time and shows a general lack of common sense and intelligence on how their actions would be received.

The public right now is not in the mood for such discussions and such open displays of a lack of common decency, understanding, and gauging the correct mood of the nation as a whole.
