I'm wondering what the popular opinion is here in the Jazz fan Nation. To touch, or not to touch? That is the question...

Discuss.
 
Although I don't think its a big deal I won't have done it, especially while be covered in sweat. Thhats why I say no. I feel also that this will unjustly add to the foreign opinion that Americans are arrogant and ignorant.


On a side note Kate is so fine....

LONDON (AP) — When King James touched the future queen of England on the shoulder after a basketball game, royal watchers cried foul.LeBron James, whose nickname is "King James," met Prince William and his wife Kate at an NBA game between Cleveland Cavaliers and Brooklyn Nets in New York on Monday. The three posed for a photograph and James put his right hand on the Duchess of Cambridge's right shoulder.
According to protocol in Britain, a commoner is not supposed to touch members of the royal family — even if it is an innocent gesture.

RAPE
Black guy with sweaty pits.
If I'm Kate and Willy, this doesn't even make the royal photo album.


Seriously, though, this whole "royalty" thing is old - and meaningless. They've inherited a ton of money. And some believe titles are still relevant. In reality, people only follow them to see if/when they'll screw up or have a wardrobe mishap, just like "we" do with the Kardashians.

That's genius. Pass Kardashian status from generation to generation by birthrights...That's way more comfortable compared to starting releasing sextapes with Ray-J continuing the rise to questionable stardom by marrying an NBA player only to divorce him shortly after and make constant public comments about the failed marriage into getting pregnant by a real pop music superstar.
 
this all royalty thing is such a waste to british tax payers. Symbol of british empire. They are absolutely useless remnant of old times. Make some wax figures of some old kings and queens and put them in museum - same value. Brits should disband all this crap and let them "princes" go to work 9 to 5 , see how they would survive without regular people paying for their housing, trips, clothes, food, etc.....Disgusting example of medieval times TBH.
 
While England is our 1st ally we are not English subjects. We do not need to disrespect them but they do not need to expect us to adhere to all their protocols. Especially on our soil.

Anyone remember when Pres. Bush shook Queen Elizabeths hand and it was all over the papers there?

In short, we can show respect and warmth but not treat them as our own royal family as they are not.
