At a 9/11 commemoration event held today by a Jewish organization, approximately 1/3 of the attendees placed their hand over their heart during the playing of the national anthem. While everyone should clearly stand and show respect during the pledge and national anthem, I’ve never felt comfortable with the hand over heart routine. Does that make one “unpatriotic”?

September 14, 2019 8:35 pm at 8:35 pm #1786575takahmamashParticipantIf you’re not in the military, you don’t salute. Standing up and standing still is all you need to do.

So I should remove my yarmulka and put it on my left shoulder? Or maybe “headdress” refers only to what Indian chiefs wear?
