My boss’s wife died recently. My boss is black. At the funeral every man and women black and white were dressed in fine but subdued apparel. There were no blue jeans on anyone. All the women wore dresses. They were shown the appropriate respect due good people.

Mrs. DeBlasio is a highly educated women that moves in the highest power circles of the liberal elite of the East Coast and Washington D.C. She is not ignorant of what is proper attire for any occassion and particularly this occasion. This leads me to believe she does not give a damn or this was a calculated insult to the New York Police.

Agree. Kind of like a public figure not saluting the flag.

I have a rule. If a funeral is inside a church I wear black dress pants. If the funeral is outside or graveside I wear black jeans. I can tell you though that here I have seen plenty of jeans on men at funerals. They’re paired with a nice shirt but it’s still accepted and no one ever mentions it.
Having said that, she just looks sloppy sloppy. Like she didn’t even try.
