[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another: [quote]It sounds to me like you do not like our country. And there it is - if you don't stand for the pledge of allegiance you don't like the US. Nonsense. Rather, I have a clear picture of this country, not some idealized, whitewashed fantasy version, and I can both love it and recognize its flaws at the same time. (FWIW, I am an upper middle class white Protestant western European male - I'm so white I'm almost clear, and if there were a picture of the person least likely to be discriminated against in this country, it could be me. That doesn't mean the country is perfect.) [/quote] What does your color have to do with anything? And, no one said our country is perfect. You can recognize its flaws and still pledge allegiance to it. [/quote] Of course. But the government can't make you. And declining to pledge allegiance =/= "do not like the country"[/quote]
