A Minnesota city council has banned the Pledge of Allegiance from being recited during its meetings because its members feel that patriotism is offensive and has been weaponized.City officials claim the "controversial" pledge will cause offense to the "increasingly diverse community" who view patriotic acts as "not welcoming."During a June 17 meeting, the St. Louis Park City Council voted 5 to 0 to nix reciting the pledge at its meetings.

They are going to revisit the issue.
Whatever.
I don’t live anywhere near it and not assimilating ALWAYS means not advancing.
Just cut all forms of welfare and I don’t care what they do.

I guess that is one way for the city council to coverup the fact that none of them have memorized the pledge

Patriotism is not a weapon. But opposing it probably is. Especially when done under the color of law.

"We are in CW2.We are in CW2.". Unfortunately, I think you're correct. Personally, I would rather die tomorrow than live a life consistent with what the left has become. They are filled with 'self-righteous hate', which is exactly what led to the Holocaust. These are very sick and dangerous people.

So what are they doing on this dirt, asserting that they have the right to rule people based on the US Constitution?
