I doubt anyone takes the pledge seriously (at least I hope not).

When you really start to look at the wording and what the pledge actually says, and read up on the history of it, it's really kind of creepy and discomforting.

It's creepy to pledge to be loyal to a country that represents freedom and justice for everyone?
frickin communist.

We're not nearly as wildly nationalistic as we were up to the 1980s. I don't like the idea of pledging every day. Maybe at the beginning of the school year. I think it should be special, not something that's rote and mundane.

Most of you have no idea. Fate takes away the best of us, and leaves behind the rest.

I prefer discussing opposing viewpoints than agreeing with everything. If I see something I agree with, i'll probably just up vote it.
