Fuck yeah! A non-bitter person!Okay, here's the deal.....
The thread question is, whether the funeral motorcade was excessive.... The answer is.... NO......
And there is no other answer, because those who participated wanted to participate. And fact of the matter is how no internet clown has any say on who is or who isn't to take part at whatever funeral it is. For fucks sake, if 5000 ppl turn up to bury a hamster, it's those 5000 ppls business, and not anyone else.
Now for the animal put to rest....
It's sad to hear how he lost his life while on duty. But as police officer he has the right to be honored by his peers, and apparently he was that popular within the police, or else they wouldn't have given him that kind of attention.
Now one can have a problem with canines to be in rank and honor of men... But that's then that persons own problem, because that's nothing new. Canines serve as soldiers, as cops, as rescue personnel for hundreds of years already. In that regard I have to say, welcome to reality, welcome to life how it always was.
And if what I said now is something that's new to one. Then I am comfortable to say how this one animal there, done and achieved more in his short life than the person that cannot grasp the concept of duty, accomplishment, honor and service to humankind.
All in all, the animal deserved every car in the motorcade, every single person attending the funeral. He saved various peoples life before, and for as long until one here beats that achievement, one has simply no qualification to speak up about it at all.
TLDR: Before you piss on others, go out and accomplish something yourself first, then come back again.
