Via Victory Girls:

Notice something dreadfully wrong? Like the flag is heaped on the floor?

From the U.S. Flag Code:

§8. Respect for flag
No disrespect should be shown to the flag of the United States of America; the flag should not be dipped to any person or thing. Regimental colors, State flags, and organization or institutional flags are to be dipped as a mark of honor.

And under that:

b. The flag should never touch anything beneath it, such as the ground, the floor, water, or merchandise.
