    People have always had the right to abstain from doing the pledge of allegiance at school if they were of special circumstance (I.e., exchange student). Frankly this is all missing the point, the fact is that Rep. White required 'Muslim' visitors to pledge allegiance, not all visitors.

    From her the implication is clear: Muslims are not trustworthy Americans.

      I was wondering if they still do that in the US, I wasn't sure if it was a Hollywood thing or for real.

      There would be a fucking riot if kids in Australia were forced to pledge allegiance, irrelevant if it 'God' was mentioned.

      We are generally happy to fight and even die for our country although overt signs of patriotism are considered crass and too American for our tastes.

        The American Left,

        Just because most terrorists are moslems it doesn't mean most moslems are terrorist,
        Just because most mass shooters are atheist, it doesn't mean most atheist are mass shooters,
        Just because Marxism has never worked, it doesn't mean Marxism will never work
        Because most criminal use guns, all gun owners are criminals
        Because some men rape, all men are rapist
        Because some immigration is good, all immigration is good.

          Actually the pledge was mandatory for students until the Jehovah's Witnesses sued and took it all the way to the Supreme Court where they won.

              Do you understand the contradiction in your own convictions that are coming out? Are you saying most muslims are terrorists? Are you saying most atheists are mass shooters?

                I agree with your point on Molly White. That was uncalled for.
