Why is it in this country just the word GOD is cause for fighting. I just don't understand what the fuck. We are the greatest country in the world and we are constantly fighting amongst ourselves over stupidity.
We are destroying what made us great by destroying our heritages, our history and most of all our rights because someone finds offense in how another practices that right, even though the one practicing their right is is doing so in a non offensive way.
To say it makes you feel uncomfortable, I am sorry, BUT you have no right to tell another what they can or cannot say. To tell one they cannot say "under GOD" is the same as them telling you, you have to say it. In either case it is wrong.
Come on now people, the word has ONLY the meaning YOU put on it. Is it that hard to understand, if you put no meaning to the word why are you so uncomfortable that you cannot allow others to say it?
The only solution is to take the whole pledge out of the school and I'm sorry that should never even be an option.
It is on issues like this I can honestly say that the freedoms we enjoy are taken to extremes. If a very small percentage finds something wrong they yell about it until the right that supports whatever the problem is gone, thereby affecting the majority's ability to practice that right.
I am left and very liberal, but for the love of God I do not understand nor affiliate myself with people who are so offended by anything religious or of historical value that they must take away others rights.

I just love people who use the excuse "I use/do this because I LOVE the feeling/joy/happiness it brings me" and expect you to be ok with that as you watch them destroy their life blindly following. My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
