Are you offended?

Buddy of mine reposted this on facebook, as did I.

I am an UN-APOLOGETIC AMERICAN !! I pledge allegiance to the flag of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, and to the REPUBLIC for which it stands, one nation under GOD, indivisible, with LIBERTY and JUSTICE for all !! I grew up reciting this every morning in school. We no longer do that for...fear... of OFFENDING SOMEONE !! Let's see how many AMERICANS will re-post this & NOT CARE about offending someone

 

I'm offended

 

nope

 

I dont care

 

Hey , WTF ?

 

if your offended move to canada

 

I am not offended, however I also believe that people shouldn't be offended if someone does not want to stand up and recite it.

 

easy fellas..Didnt mean for this to become a shit storm.

 

Im offended by the way people in the US act towards trying to be politically correct or trying not to offend some one.

 

If someone is offended by the pledge of allegiance we might as well send em to quantanamo

 

Offended they don't do it anymore, I remember saying this every morning as well. When you come to America, you're supposed to adapt to our customs/traditions/rules/laws not have them bent or changed to suit you; then you can't really call yourself an American, can you?

 

Why not? Theres tons of people in the service, who fought everyday(I see your one of them, thank you) for Americans to be able to recite this. I almost see this as an act of grattitude towards servicemen/women.

 

x2. I could care less to be honest. If they dont like me for how I feel about my country or religion or what ever... thats on them. I am me and no one can change that.

 

X2 people around me have learned that if I don't like them or one of their ideas I will point it out. It's nothing personal, it's just the truth.

 

What ?

 

Dont care x2

 

I'm a senior in High School and we still do it every day, I stand up out of respect but I think this country's fucked up and has too many problems, "white people problems" as Louis C.K stated, and its almost embarrassing to be here, granted this is our country and my home and i wouldn't want to be anywhere else, but I'd rather just live as a human being than an american. I think it's stupid to be offended by it but people just want to bitch about whatever they can.

EDIT: And I respect all of those who fought for our country and who are fighting for our country, no hatin please.

 

I'm offended...THAT THEY TOOK THAT OUT OF SCHOOLS FOR OFFENDING PEOPLE! We recited that everyday in bootcamp before hittin the rack. Good times!!

 

I'll recite it loud and proud, and you can't stop me.
