I really don't understand why schools still try to force this ritual on kids.
I really don't understand why liberals are so much against the Pledge of Allegiance and always ready to defend "the right" to burn the flag.

They have more Pride in what they believe then any of you fucking sheep.

I guess it's fine for all religions to die for America, but only one can be honored by the country. What a joke.
And when you fucks are on your deathbed, you're the most scared shitless "free thinking" asses on earth. It's the most humorous thing any human can experience. Watching an atheist die in the hospital. You'll never see a more lost, scared to shit person in your life.

Death is just as much a part of life as life itself. I do not believe in Heaven or Hell, but I do think people should stand to respect the flag. Infact I think these people should be forced into the Military for a year, you bet your ass they will stand! When I die, if I die long from now, what will make me scared or not is if I have lived a good life and had a good family and left behind things worth remembering.

How about instead of wasting time on empty gestures, the schools actually teach the friggen constitution in class. You know, the document that actually matters!

The flag doesn;t give me freedoms, the pedge doesn't do shit for me, but the constitution is what this nation was founded on.

We ignore this shit, but want to mindlessly cling to the anthem, pledge, flag, etc.


I bet if you asked most people some basic constitution questions, they wouldn;t know shit.

The US government does a good job with directing citizins attention to empty symbols. You really notice it in the threads that deal with the Patriot Act, every second response is "if your not a terrorist then you have nothing to worry about", such a response can only come from a person who has absolutely no understanding or respect for liberal ideology.

Well ryu, its an empty gesture to you. To many its not. However the lack of education in schools has nothing to do with whether they pledge or not. Schools are shitty for a number of resons. Reference all the news lately about students beating teachers/ trying to rape them etc . Trying to teach students respect is not one of them.

What happened to being free in America?

America, FUCK YEAH!

Where it's free to do what you want, unless you know, it goes against our beliefs.

lol and when you're on your deathbed, you'll just be burned or buried into the ground, just like anyone else.

Is your God so insecure that he needs people to worship him? If he was all knowing and all worldly, would he really care if you believed in him or not? How can there be a god that gave us a brain if he didn't want us to use it?

And also, fuck having deep bonds with your Nation and being willing to die for it and shit like that. Your Nation doesn't give a fuck about you.

Why is it that the most powerful nation on Earth has such an inferiority complex? No other free nation has the rituals our backwards ass nation has with its flag.
