are students made to say the pledge? i just want to know WHY. 'to be patriotic'???????? is that what people are going to say? or is it more like the shaping of young minds that aren't capable of thinking for themselves yet, to automaticaly love their country? who came up with this idea? why are students taught all these patriotic songs? i understand for veterans day, etc, but isnt this really TEACHING them to be patriotic? why are americans under the influence that it is america and only america that have these freedoms? Why don't people realize that virtually all the other countries in the UN have similar freedoms to us? all i want to know is why.
