DO NOT TOUCH THE ROYALS!!!!

How hard is that to understand?

If they reach out their hand, you can shake it.

Otherwise, bow!!!

It's called protocol, people.

frick their protocol. Do you think Lebron James was aware of the fact that he (as a lowly commoner ) wasn't allowed to touch them? We don't have royalty in the U.S., and most people aren't going to know this protocol unless they've been briefed on it. Brits should probably be more understanding, especially considering they were in the U.S. and it certainly appears that Lebron's heart was in the right place.

They pulled this same shite when Michelle Obama touched the Queen. I mean, how dare the wife of the President of United States put her filthy hands on the Queen?! I'm far from being Team Obama, but their reaction to that situation was pretty aggravating.

Meeting the Queen is a complicated thing. You have to curtsy, you can't extend a hand before she extends hers, you can't pick up food before she does, and you definitely, most certainly, never, ever are allowed to attempt to hug or kiss her. Which is why it caused quite the hilarious stir yesterday across the pond when Her Royal Highness half-embraced Michelle Obama. Nearly the entire nation simultaneously snarfed their English Breakfast. And then, the unthinkable happened: Michelle hugged her back.

Bad bad grammar here. People extend their hands for a handshake, not reach out their hands.

Did you sleep through English class?

Most of the world considers us gauche when it comes to manners and protocol.
