Boy won’t say pledge, until there is liberty and justice for all
When asked what caused him to not stand up and recite the pledge, he answered
“Well, I looked at the end [of the Pledge of Allegiance] and it sayed ‘with liberty and justice for all’ and there’s really isn’t liberty and justice for all… Gay’s and lesbians can’t marry. There’s still a lot of racism and sexiam in the world.”
When his teacher started giving him grief after 4 days for exercising his first amendment rights and not standing up he “eventually, very solemnly, with a little bit of malice in my voice, said ‘Ma’am, with all due respect, you can go jump off a bridge.’”
