Pledge of Allegiance Ruled Unconstitutional
VUSE g-EE-k and entirely too many other people wrote in about an Appeals Court decision holding that the Pledge of Allegiance, as recited in its current form in various public schools (often by law), is unconstitutional. The court's decision (PDF) is available.
When our nation is so obsessed with stuff like this.
We waste billions on lawsuits which do nothing but remove the moral fabric of our country. Ever since the "liberation" of the people in the twenties this country has had an incredible exponential increase in social problems. Crime, disease, civil unrest, and violence have all increased dramatically while actual personal freedom has been destroyed.
Our education system is a joke because there is no enforcement anymore. It's becomming impossible to enforce any discipline at all because everyone attempts to justify their POV on why they should be exempt from law, responsibility and accountability.
Our real freedoms are being drained away while we bicker and fight over the freedom not to hear what's good for us.
God have mercy on this country. I believe our foolishness will soon destroy this country.
