[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Half of my kids’ school either isn’t American at all or has dual citizenship with another country as mine do.  I hope my kids aren’t pledging allegiance. [/quote]

Huh?? What does this even mean? How do you know who has what citizenship and whatnot? Why are you even here if you hope your kids aren't pledging allegiance? Why don't you just go back to Russia or China or whatever your citizenship is?[/quote]

And that was really your entire intent behind starting this thread. You just wanted to tell people "to go back where they came from." It isn't going to happen. We are here legally, naturalized citizens of this country and citizens by birth of another. I have no desire to recite the pledge to this country or any other. This blid nationalism has got to go. Spend your energy working on real issues such as lack of access to health care, or a living wage for all of our citizens instead of this BS.[/quote]
Hm… Was that your attitude during your naturalization ceremony, or were you just performing?

This dual citizenship thing should stop.[/quote]

Why? Are you jealous you don't have one? I'm legally allowed to have dual citizenship and intend to keep both. [/quote]
[b]Naturalization Oath of Allegiance to the United States of America[/b]
Oath
"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."[/quote]

OK, and?[/quote]
