The South Carolina school district involved in a legal battle with a student who says she was accosted for not saying the Pledge of Allegiance has contradicted the student's claims.
Ninth-grade student Marissa Barnwell says she was pushed by a River Bluff High School teacher when she didn't stop to recite the Pledge of Allegiance. Barnwell says she was walking quietly in a hallway when the teacher allegedly yelled at her.
"I was completely and utterly disrespected," the 15-year-old said. "No one has apologized, no one has acknowledged my hurt."
An attorney representing Lexington School District 1 says that surveillance video shows the teacher touching Barnwell's shoulder, but not pushing her.

My wife says most classes will not stand for the pledge.
No one should be forced to say it. It’s indoctrination weather it’s on the right or left.
If they refuse to pledge allegiance to the gay flag, that will be a hate crime.

If you don’t put the Pledge of Allegiance in the young skulls full of mush, something else will be there.
Take a guess....
Yep........
As soon as I read “disrespected” as the offense, I knew.

That’s what got us into Viet Nam/Iraq/Korea-even WW1 & 2.
Ukraine is calling.
You’re 15 honey, You haven’t earned any redpect, IE: you can’t be disrespected if you don’t have any respect.

Tell me. CHOOSE. Don’t just say what you don’t want, I am tired of the crap.
Do you like what is filling the vacuum? A vacuum gets filled.
“No one has apologized, no one has acknowledged my hurt.”
A universal whine by a leftist who has never had to endure a real beating, but needs to.
This useless twitt disrespects all of her classmates and the rest of the nation then is butt hurt because she is disrespected when called out on her behavior. Victim Amish.
It seems that Whites are immune from disrespect.
"I was completely and utterly disrespected," the 15-year-old said. "No one has apologized, no one has acknowledged my hurt."
When I was 15, no 15-year-old would speak these words.
No, that’s not what got us in those wars, it was in some cases, corrupt politicians and idiots. I see nothing wrong with saying the pledge. It is not indoctrination, it is a statement of love of country, which apparently you disagree with. Look at where we are now with the democrats pushing hate or country. Guess you would rather have that.
Yes...That’s a dead giveaway....
Yeah, half of high school classes won’t stand. I asked my students, “Who told you not to stand?” Everyone one of them shrugged their shoulders.
I will say one kid talked about a video they saw on TikTok that america was founded on blah blah.
I said, “so you’re going to believe an app created by the Chinese military telling you not to love you country? You know who the Uyghurs are?”
Again, shrugs.
Ditto
