So Obama took his place amid these leaders who’d gathered from all corners of the globe. Among them was British Prime Minister David Cameron, as well as a woman who I wasn’t able to immediately identify. I later learned it was the Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning Schmidt. I’m a German-Colombian based in India, so I don’t feel too bad I didn’t recognize her! At the time, I thought it must have been one of Obama’s many staffers.

Anyway, suddenly this woman pulled out her mobile phone and took a photo of herself smiling with Cameron and the US president. I captured the scene reflexively. All around me in the stadium, South Africans were dancing, singing and laughing to honour their departed leader. It was more like a carnival atmosphere, not at all morbid. The ceremony had already gone on for two hours and would last another two. The atmosphere was totally relaxed – I didn’t see anything shocking in my viewfinder, president of the US or not.

I don't know who this asshole is, but it was very disrespectful of him to be taking photographs at a funeral. I feel that he owes the world an apology.
 
Unfortunately my family is 100% Irish (scum of the earth) on my mother's side.

Wanna see a pathetic Irish wake? Goto one where your cousin has committed suicide.

100% Irish going back to the boat on my mom's side as well and my family kicks ass. You got screwed.
