I have some liberal hippy wannabe giving me shit on FB. I post a link about saying the pledge in schools. Everyone "likes" it and shows support. Then we have one douche that decides to speak out against it. Anybody that wants to jump this dudes shit, feel free to do so. He is an old school acquaintance. Always thought he was a good bit off. No loss on my part. Here is where I am:

I remember doing this. I am ashamed we are not allowed to do so anymore. God bless the USA!
Share this if you used to do this... and think we should still do this.

Jason Smith Okay... I'll bite. *Why* should kids still be forced to do this? I'd like to hear your reasoning.

Jason Smith Sorry... I guess "forced" was a bad choice of words. However, if a child chooses not to stand, he/she runs the risk of being judged and becoming a social pariah. That kind of pressure isn't very comfortable, and completely unnecessary for young children, IMNSO.

Jason- This is America. We should be pledging allegiance to America. Not Mexico, not China, not any other nation. Our kids are being desensitized a little bit at a time. It is becoming the norm to ignore how this country was founded. ...See More

Jason Smith So if I choose not to do the pledge, I'm a "little taliban puke"? Nice.

Jason Smith And very good use of the "love it or leave it" argument... One of my personal favorites.

Phil Hicks Not necessarily. Just an unpatriotic American in my eyes. This is your right. This is my opinion.

Phil Hicks It is not a "love it or leave it" argument. It is simply my opinion. You asked me to elaborate on "my reasoning". I am sorry if our opinions do not coincide. That is what is great about this country. We do not have to all think alike.

Jason Smith And why am I an "unpatriotic American" just because I'm not into as symbols as you are? Not to mention, you gave me the exact phrase of the pledge which backs my view that it shouldn't be said in schools anyway. That whole pesky separation of church and state thing.

Phil Hicks Tolerance? I believe many people have freedoms in this country to believe what they choose. This doesn't make it right or wrong. This makes it their freedom of choice. I believe tolerance is 98% of this nation biting their tongues for the minute percentage that want to spit in the eye of our founding fathers and burn the flag or speak against it. Tolerance is not what made this nation what it is. If tolerance were our motto, we would still be part of England. We were "Back to Back World War champions" for crying out loud. lol

Fixed it for you. Thanks again Huck. I agree with this as well. Life is short. Life is good. The Lord has blessed me and my family. I am going to eliminate the negativity. I will attempt to be "tolerant" first and just ignore it. He continues his shit and I drop him. Ironic in my opinion he felt we should be tolerant. This country was not formed because we are a "tolerant" people. Tolerance to the minority of those the scream when things don't go their way is one of the reasons we have become such a mamby pamby nation that elected some foreigner to office so he could bow down to all the nations which hate us and apologize to them. Also ironic the nations he apologized to hate us even more now.

What a Ass.
Go Jack Nicholson on him Phil!

Colonel Jessup:

Son, we live in a world that has walls. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent defending something. You use 'em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to!
