When I was a kid, I was taught proper flag etiquette was to place your hand on your heart during the Pledge of Allegiance and to remove your hat and stand at attention during the National Anthem
That's incorrect according to U.S. Code. Unless you're military, in which you salute from start to finish, you're supposed to face the flag, stand at attention, and place your right hand over you heart. Men wearing hats are to place the hat over their left should which puts their hand over their heart. If no flag is visible, face the direction of the music and do the same as if a flag was there.
don't people have anything better to do nowadays?
Good point.
One might notice this flows over into the political candidates as well.
Some of these networks spent story after story commenting about Trump's dismissal of a baby. And they hardly touched on Hillary's crimes and Obama's secret $400 million, etc. --- because apparently the public does not care about that stuff.
THAT, is the mainstream news media for you these days. Sick.

WFT is US Code? I've never heard of such a thing.
This is bullshit. As long a person stands quietly and respectfully during the playing of the national anthem, nothing more is required. This hand on your heart stuff is just lunacy. One must be patriotic in just this way. Garbage.

It's still bullshit.
You have a law that tells you what to do when the national anthem is playing. Total bullshit.
What a stupid assed comment...Her failure disrespected the Nation she was supposed to be representing. She should be barred from further representation while she learns how to do so properly.
There wasn't anything to apologize for. When did this become a requirement?
By hard work and by practicing many hours a day for years you won a gold medal for your nation by competing against the best the rest of the world has to offer and defeating all of them while rooting on your teammates, but not putting your hand over your heart is an outrage!
Stupid as hell.

I seem to remember Bush changing it to allow vets the option of standing at attention. Most military, while in civilian clothes, just stand at attention. That's what I always preferred doing and still do.
Gabby Douglas apologizes in wake of national anthem criticism
don't people have anything better to do nowadays?
here is a quote from the article I like" Unfortunately, the social media era makes not offending people quite impossible."
No dumb ass, she will be remebered for her outstanding performances.There wasn't anything to apologize for. When did this become a requirement?

Stupid as hell.
Hard work doesn't cancel disrespect. If she is remembered at all it will be for disrespecting her Country; not her athletic performance. She deliberately dishonored herself and she certainly deserves the disrespect she has earned for herself.

Can I mention that Michael Phelps was joking with teammates during the playing of the US National Anthem, and no one criticized him. The stupid shaming of young women on the internet continues.
If you had a life, you would have nothing to complain about her at all...If she had any class at all we wouldn't have anything to complain about.
