It's only at a memorial service. Which means it affects nobody that doesn't go.
Because you seem to have neglected the almost obligatory link:

Disgrace!
Why is a police officer's death considered any more significant than the murder of anyone else?
A life is a life IMO.
If they held it in the street and asked everyone to join in it would be a different matter, but its at a memorial service, so its hardly unique.
I've been to plenty of funerals where we held a two minute silence, including my Nan, who died of old age.
They do at their own memorial service.
Whatever.
They're having a silence at her memorial service. Big deal, what is the problem exactly?
There have been plenty of memorial services for other "have a go heroes" killed. There was one for Anthony Wilson.
It's rather disrespectful all this moaning and whingeing.
