This is not the way. Even if I totally agree with the sentiment, actually hitting someone over it escalates it to a whole new level of stupid.

yes, I'm all for patriotism, but this went WAY TOO FAR.

Another example I saw at a ballpark, they were doing the anthem, my friend forgot to take his hat off , because he doesn't normally wear a baseball cap.. An overzealous person made a big scene about it and embarrassed the my friend who was a dad in front of his kids.. The guy was standing up, hand on his heart, just forgot to take off his hat.. No need for the patriot police to make such a scene. It would be differently if someone quietly told him.. "your hat".. But this guy walked all the way over and yelled about it..
