On February 4th, an 11 year old middle school student in Lakeland, Florida was arrested
because he refused to stand for the pledge of allegiance.
And 11 year old middle school kid hauled out of that school in handcuffs because he didn't
want to stand for the pledge of allegiance.
Here's what happened that day.
One of his classes, I guess his, uh, first early morning class had a substitute teacher
to kid did not stand for the pledge of allegiance.
And the teacher asks, why aren't you standing?
And he said, I don't want to stand for the pledge of allegiance.
The flag is racist and the national anthem is offensive to black people.
That's what he said.
That was his quote to which the substitute teacher allegedly replied, well, uh, you know,
why if it was so bad here, do you not just go find another place to live as if this 11
year old kid actually has a choice about where he lives?
And that's such a bullshit reasoning that we hear all the time from conservative.
Like if you don't like it, just leave.
Trust me.
It's really not that easy to just up and leave and go find a new country.
While we would prefer to do and what this kid is trying to get across to this idiot
substitute teacher is that we want to make this place better.
We don't want to leave here, but that doesn't mean it's wonderful and everything is great.
It means we want to make it better.
But this kid, 11 years old, was arrested for allegedly becoming disruptive because you
wouldn't stand for the pledge of allegiance.
Now the school maintains that they have a policy that you do not have to stand for the
pledge of allegiance at all.
No, no, no.
So if this kid was being disruptive, it's because this substitute teacher and the other
faculty who eventually came in there because they provoked him, they tried to make him
stand, even though they claim it's not even their policy.
You know, you cannot legally, by the way, force anyone to stand for the pledge of allegiance.
You can't do that.
They knew that they provoked the kid and then use that as an excuse to arrest him.
Something that every single person in that school is going to remember for ever.
They have put this mark now on this child that is going to go with them that every one
of his classmates is going to remember him for, for ever forever and they did it intentionally
and they did it by breaking the law.
That's what's important here and more importantly, I think we need to reassess the entire standing
up to say the pledge of allegiance every single morning in school from the time we start kindergarten
till the time we graduate high school, we're forcing patriotism on kids.
They don't even understand the words that they're saying.
They're, I mean, honest to God, has anybody ever gone through like line line and actually
analyze what's in that pledge of allegiance?
We're pledging our lives, we're pledging our undying love and devotion to a thing.
The same kind of thing that we would actually ridicule other countries for doing.
I mean we look at, you know, the the youth soldiers out there in other countries being
forced into this patriotic display.
We see it in North Korea, we've seen it in the Middle East and we ridicule it.
We say how horrible it is.
Then we come back over here to the United States and say, you better stand up every
single morning and devote your life and your undying love and adoration to the United States
of America.
We're no different than everybody else.
We are trying to force patriotism on two children and we've been doing it for decades at this
point, and we just accept it as a thing that we do.
Well.
To me, that seems like a thing that needs to be reevaluated.
It's not the teacher's jobs to teach these kids to lay down their lives for the United
States of America.
It's their job to teach them things so that they can go out and be productive members
of society.
Instead.
What we're seeing is that if you don't follow along with their little forced patriotism,
they're going to haul you off to jail because that is exactly what happened to this 11 year
old kid down in south Florida.
