If not for the leftist louts, then no need for that kind of security.

Some Britons balked at the grand ceremonial funeral with military honors held for a politician whose legacy divides the country. That's right AP, piss on her grave right up until the end.

I’d much rather give $5.6 million to security personnel than to the kind of people who make the security necessary.
Instead of saying, “It’s awful they spent that much money,” Brits should be saying, “It’s awful that our population includes so many rotten people.”

Good. At lest it wasn’t spent on welfare and NHS.

$400 Million USD to bury President Reagan. *SNIF*
$5 Million Pounds to bury Princess Diana.
$9 Million Euros for Pope John Paul II
$40 Million USD for JFK
$600 Million USD (in today’s dollars) for Alexander the Great

So that's $0.10 per Brit.
Or roughly one ten thousandth of how much more they'd be paying in taxes right now had she not been Prime Minister.

no big deal
that’s just the cost of a couple nights in Paris hotels for VP Biden, or another fancy resort vacation for his boss

I guarantee that kind of security won’t be necessary for Bill Clinton’s funeral. Conservatives won’t have any interest in disrupting it.

I would give a 100 times that to have someone with her courage, strength, wisdom, and fortitude in our white house right now. Someone that at least loves our country.
