Oh, So You're Too Good For Us?
WARNING:BAD SPELLER, PLEASE DO NOT COMMENT ON POOR SPELLING!
Rant Warning: If you don't wanna hear about my persional issuses with some people, DONT READ THIS! If you're not an American I don't think you're going to really give a crap about this.
What do we all do every day before school starts? I'll give you a few hints:
We stand up,
We put our right hand on our heart,
We look towards our colors,
We resite a few words,
We sit back down
This process is called the Pledge Of Allegance To The United States Of America. A simple sign of respect for the founders of the country we live in; the freedoms we have in this said country; and the men and woman who have shed their blood and given their lives to keep it free. Sometimes, I think the first amendment (freedom of speech, freedom of press, ect.) was a big freakin mistake.
Theres this girl in my first period class who really just ticks me off. While every other (semi-respectfull) kid in the class stands up for the Pledge Of Allegance, she just sits in her chair with that same stupied look on her face. It's the "I'm too cool to care" look and, it really pisses me off.
Why would someone wanna disgrace our country in such a way? Because they "hate America" too much. "I don't agree with the war going on, so I should not honor the people dieing in it." WRONG, YOU ARROGENT BITCH! I don't agree with the war, or the deaths of anyone in it. You should still have respect for the people who fight for your country so you can go on sitting on your lazy ass! Just think of it this way, If we had no soldgers, they very well could reinstate the draft. "but I'm a girl, they wouln't draft me." WRONG AGAIN YOU FREAKIN MORON! Woman are serving in Iraq and dieing there as we speak. Not just being a nurse or a mechanic, being a full battle ready soldger. "Well I hate Bush, so I refuse to honor this country." WOW, YOU'RE BRAIN-DEAD! I don't care for Bush either but, if you won't respect your country becuase you dont like who is in charge, at least do it for who has been in charge; who will be in charge (when Bush is finally gone); the people in the country; the people who made the country; and the people who have died for the country.
If you're so Anti-America, GO SOMEWHERE ELSE! I sure as hell don't want you here and, I'll bet some little Mexican guy whould give ANYTHING to have his daughter replace you. PLEASE move somewhere else if you wanna be liek this girl, we sure don't need you here.

Maybe my points of view would be different if I were American, but I don't think I would do it either. Not for the sake of being cool, but because I don't necessarily support what America has become, or what it has done in the past. Of course, certain leaders have done amazing things, just like it many other countries, but it really just doesn't cut it for me.
I know my opinion really doesn't matter and it's none of my business, but I'm just saying, for my own personal reasons, if I were American I would probably not say the Pledge of Allegiance.

Well, like I said, its not a requirement, just a simple and easy sign showing the slightest bit of respect towards your country. Why live here and have no respect for it what-so-ever?
Slappy: I dont think I know you too well, but you seem to be well tempored if you ask me. People who put you down for that are strait up arrogent.

i agree.
if someone thinks they're better than everyone else,they can go f themselves.
believe me, in fifth grade, about half the girls think they're better.
they flash around their "back-stage pass" to some sh*tty band.
they carry around little purses with nothing in them.
it pisses me off too.
i mean, the US could be better....
but she should say it.
CanYouFeelIt, February 18th, 2008 at 09:51:04am
It should be a choice if you want to say the pledge, hell American isn't even that great, niether is any other country in the world. No place is better than anywhere else, so much for democracy.
schooldropout, February 18th, 2008 at 06:38:21am
Part of living in America is accepting the fact that people have the right to make choices like that.

Americans don't understand how good they have it. They always complain about how they live in the worst country. Ahah, no.
We have such an amazing history. Take a look at "the Star-Spangled Banner;" it tells an awesome story. It tells what America is all about: Having faith in itself. We could've easily given up during all those times we fought to be free, and yes, we're free. Sorry that you have to pay taxes, but it's not as bad as bowing down to a dictator, now is it? I didn't think so.
Am I the only one nowadays who loves American History class? Am I the only one who'd rather watch a movie about Martin Luther King Jr. than watch the coolest movie in theaters that you and your friends are just dying to see? Am I the only one who takes pride in my country?
lishaaaaa, February 17th, 2008 at 11:24:31pm
I don't say the pledge of alligance.
I do not support America.
When I turn 18 and can move out...I really plan on moving out of the country.
I get what you mean, but also, you don't have to support your country. and its her fault if shes a stupid b*tch.,
If you think you should say the plege, than go for it. But its a choice. Not a law.

I agree,....and disagree.
She shouldn't be so smug and looking cool about it. If it's about your beliefs, go ahead, but don't look stuck up.
I don't agree with most of the things in the country.
But I'm honoring the leaders and soldiers who did give their lives for the good of the country.
The Revolutionary Soldiers, and the Northern Civil War Soldiers are heros in a way to me. We have so much freedom we take for granted.
If you have a reason for that, great. If not, Stand up, and say the effin words.

No offense, but I think this is sort of offensive to me. That made no sense.
They give us a right to choose whether we recite the pledge and I for one choose not to.
No one has ever asked me to stand up and say it, and I honestly don't feel the need to.
I'm against this whole war thing, and I'm not saying that I disrespect the country and all. It's not a horrible thing to do if I don't say it, right?
Or am I going to get shipped off to Juvy for 'disrespecting' my country.
I take the insults I receive for proudly carrying pictures of loved ones I had lost to the war and things. I pinned a picture of my dad to my backpack and every day I'm put down for something as little as that.
But I do like this blog. In some ways.
