Respect & courtesy to the Crown _is_ a _period_ part of the game we choose to play.
Respect & courtesy to all _ is_ a _period_ part of the game we choose to play. 

I have some suggestions to those who do not have respect to the Crown(s):

1. Stay from royalty at events. I don't mean that you can not attend events,
     just keep your distance. 
2. If you don't like the current royals, fight for crown & become the perfect
    royal that you have dreamed of. 
3. Take care what you say & to whom about royals. No one is going to chop your
    head off for having a different opinion,  but you may cut off your own hand
    in spite of your face. 

Please don't let your politics ruin everyone's fun.
