When you are forced to sit in silence for a minute to honor a particular event i.e. on september 11th alot of workplaces and schools will make everyone sit in silence for at least a minute to commemorate the lives lost.

If so do you not think it would be particularly disrespectful toward anyone whom such silences might hold some meaning? Is it not too much to ask to shut up for 10 seconds out of respect for someone else?

If these events are meaningful to them then they can deal with that that their own way in the comfort of their own homes, i don't wish to have to sit in silence and supposedly honor something that i may not have strong feelings about.
