I applaud the company's decision.  All too often nowdays, people seem to think they can act without consequence.  Hopefully she learned a valuable life-lesson.

And I condemn their cowardice. If an employee chooses to flip off the President while wearing her company sweater, fire her. If she's on her own time and not representing herself as a member of the company when doing so, who cares? Employment begins at 8 and ends at 5.
