Sire my dad was in the army also, and I cannot say the same. Maybe you just have a retarded view on the average person.

Also, patriotism. Do you get mad at canadians who say their country is the best? There is nothing wrong with patriotism.

And, um, really, you are just seen as a dumbass if you don't simply put your hand on your heart for the pledge, there is really no reason to not do it. Stop trying to act like you're so smart and your beliefs are so cool and rebellious.


How often do you get down on a rug and pray to Allah?

why should i put my hand on my heart for something that doesn't exist you dumbshit

Also, I find patriotism as a whole pretty stupid. I was born in the United States. Cool. Some kid was born in Russia. Cool. Neither of us chose where we wanted to be born. psyduck;

1. I don't say the pledge. Its fucking stupid. I'm not pledging myself to any country, as any country can easily become corrupt and I certaintly don't feel I should support it when it does. I just stand because my dad is a veteran now, and that's a show of respect to him.

2. Lawlz, you're fucking retarded if you're blaming religion for wars. Sure, they're used as excuses, but even with out them people would find some other cause so shut the fuck up.

3. Selkie, patriotism is retarded. It causes blind faith in one's country, which throughout history we've seen lead to multiple wars and genocides. There's basically nothing good about it. It's just a word the government uses to lead weak minds into following them blindly

Uh... at school, I have to say the American pledge every day. Is it not like that elsewhere in the country? psyduck;

My school's pretty stupid, but at least they don't give me any grief about my choosing not saying the pledge

As far as any of my schools know, you have to say it by law. Somebody got suspended for not standing up to say it earlier.

We had to in kindergarten and first grade every day. Then I got a very long break from it until we started doing it every Monday in 11th and 12th grade.

I've had to do it every single day I'm in school, from Kindergarten to now, 11th grade.

um im saying religion leads many people to become jingoists which in turn can and often does lead to wars psyduck;

If someone says America is the greatest nation in the world "because we have freedom and other countries don't," like every single person that I have ever known in this state has said, then that person is retarded. If a person says this country is great because most everyone has an equal economic opportunity, then fine. But that's not a result of invading Iraq and Vietnam and whatnot. psyduck;

you're not supposed to be forced to say it psyduck;

Some teachers at my school force us to stand, and I just find that annoying. Not everyone feels they have to, so why should they? Quite a few people have some reasons for not standing up. Since my Criminal Justice teacher permits us to sit down (if we want to), I stand up to show respect.

Religion doesn't lead people to become jingoist... psyduck; That's just people being stupid, there's no religious aspect behind it.

Also, lol at "If someone says America is the greatest nation in the world "because we have freedom and other countries don't," like every single person that I have ever known in this state has said."

Hi Lawlz. I believe I'm in this state.

Wow. Just wow.

Don't tell me you're one of those dumb fuck kids who try to be smart and have their own ideas and beliefs but just come off as faggots.

"oLoL no me guna do pledge cuz emeriku is the worst country evar lolollolo fuck soldierz lololo"
Uhm no.  I don't say the pledge because I'm not pledging allegiance to any nation.   Pledging allegiance means you remain loyal to the nation no matter what.    

That leads to fascism.    The only allegiance a person should hold is to themselves.
