Amazing how the families/supposed victims never want to be identified in cases like this.

Thank you for referencing that article Olog-hai. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

As a side note to this thread, patriots may want to consider the following which I regard as a problem with the Pledge. More specifically, not only was the Pledge written by a socialist, but using terms like "one Nation" and "indivisible," the Pledge is arugably pro-big federal government propaganda.

In fact, note that Thomas Jefferson had written that the states were to regard each other basically like individual nations while foreign nations were to regard the states as one nation.

"The true theory of our Constitution is surely the wisest and best, that the States are independent as to everything within themselves, and united as to everything respecting foreign nations." --Thomas Jefferson to Gideon Granger, 1800.

The bottom line regarding the Pledge is the following. It's bad enough that parents aren't making sure that their children are being taught the federal government's constitutionally limited powers. But on top of that parents want their children to recite the Pledge which arguably contradicts the idea of a constitutionally limited power federal government.
