BOSTON (FOX25, myfoxboston) - A woman that appears to be the daughter of Caroline Kennedy Schlossberg gives the middle finger to an unknown crowd member during Thursday's procession. Watch the video and weigh in on Mike's Blog.
Warning: Video may be offensive to some.
Weigh in on Mike's Blog:
Growing up in Massachusetts, I know first-hand about the Kennedy
legacy and appreciate what the family means to this state... in
good times and bad. Even so, it has been amazing to see ALL the
people who have turned out to pay their respects to Senator
Kennedy… lining the streets of Boston for the
procession… standing in line for hours to walk past his
casket. Given the outpouring, it really was quite a shock to see
one of the Kennedys flipping someone the bird during the procession
for Senator Kennedy in Boston on Thursday.
Our photographer just happened to be focused on the limo
carrying the young Kennedy woman right when she made the obscene
gesture near Fanueil Hall. The woman in question appears to be 21
year old Rose Schlossberg, the daughter of Caroline Kennedy
Schlossberg and Edwin Schlossberg and granddaughter of former
president John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
Our photographer was not close enough to know what happened
to prompt Rose to do this, but it looks like she was responding to
someone in the crowd. Who knows what rude comment she might have
heard? In the video you can see someone nudge her right after it
happens. Funerals are stressful for every family. When you live
under the glare of the spotlight like the Kennedys, perhaps this
funeral is even more stressful. But what was JFK’s
granddaughter thinking? Cameras are always rolling when the
Kennedys are around, especially when there’s a procession for
Great Uncle Ted and tens of thousands of people turn out. What do
you think? Inappropriate gesture on a solemn day or no big deal?
A warning: The video you’re about to see may be
offensive to some people.
