Perceived? There was nothing
perceived about it. It was a flagrant act of disrespect. I might even go so far as to say that it is a spit in your face insult.

I see. Do they no longer teach civics in school? These were things that I knew by the third grade.

Whoa there. This has absolutely not one damn thing to do with
