"Yeah, well try that philosophy with The Pledge of Allegiance and see how far that gets you. Even if the leftist scum rat's kids aren't required to attend The Pledge, they nevertheless want The Pledge banned because it offends [them]/their kids."
Well, I say the Pledge the way I learned it in grammar school in the early 50s. You may remember that it didn't have the words "under God" in it then. I still say it that way, and proudly. Anyone can do the same, since nobody is compelled to say any Pledge of Allegiance.
You miss the point. To the corrupt left it's not good enough that no one is compelled to say The Pledge, they want the practice stopped altogether.
If their logic is applied to these "Gay" meetings they should also be banned, but that will never happen because:
(1) They are hypocrites, and
(2) They are evil.
