They are out to loot it. Step one requires that they learn a disrespect of their mark so instead of feeling immoral they feel justified. The basic evil force driving this is envy.

LOS ANGELES (Nov. 11) - Student leaders at a California college have touched off a furor by banning the Pledge of Allegiance at their meetings, saying they see no reason to publicly swear loyalty to God and the U.S. government.
The move by Orange Coast College student trustees, the latest clash over patriotism and religion in American schools, has infuriated some of their classmates -- prompting one young woman to loudly recite the pledge in front of the board on Wednesday night in defiance of the rule.
"America is the one thing I'm passionate about and I can't let them take that away from me," 18-year-old political science major Christine Zoldos told Reuters.
"The fact that they have enough power to ban one of the most valued traditions in America is just horrible," Zoldos said, adding she would attend every board meeting to salute the flag.
The move was led by three recently elected student trustees, who ran for office wearing revolutionary-style berets and said they do not believe in publicly swearing an oath to the American flag and government at their school. One student trustee voted against the measure, which does not apply to other student groups or campus meetings.
Yes, the liberal goons of leftist academia are having their Godless, anti-American way influencing the naive minds of our young....
Good to see some of the students fighting back against their perverted ways.
I wonder if they believe in accepting federal student aid? Just a guess, but I'll bet they can justify that.

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.
Yea . like the pledge is so dangerous. You live here , you want the benefits of living here , but you cannot pledge to America . Something wrong here. Must be the teachers, they sure have are doing a good job to get students to hate America. Are these people who ban the pledge here to love America or destroy it?
Hey the dirty little secret of freedom means you are on your own. Cut the funding then. They can do without it, right?
Communists.
Charlie Rangel should draft them first. The Godless/Anti-Americans running for the border would definitely be an improvement:

You got that right Reeses. You got that right.
"California Students Ban Pledge of Allegiance"
This is nothing compared to what's coming. They're only getting started (the Left).
God help America
I really need to get my family out of California. I'm afraid The Big One isn't that far away.
Should withdraw ALL federal aid to the puke college. Have them ask russia for funds.
Get a job! What do you want to bet these a-holes are going to school on government-funded financial aid?
Our academic dhimmis are the mullas' "Useful Infidels". Maybe they were promised that they would be beheaded last!
"...saying they see no reason to publicly swear loyalty to God and the U.S. government."
There WILL come a day, however, where they will be required to swear loyalty to Allah or lose their heads.
If they continue on the road they are currently traveling, THIS day will come soon!

Envy is THE root evil that drives and fuels the Left.
10th Commandment. God knows all about it.
Thank you for getting here first and stating exactly what I felt!
