Sixth Grader Arrested For Refusing to Say the "Pledge of Allegiance"...

Yes and my 9yo says she thinks Donald trump is an idiot. I tell her as often as I can that she gets to make up her own mind about these things and that she doesn’t have to have the same opinion as her mother and I, but there you go. The unspoken part of this is “that’s what he wants to do (to impress his parents)”

Poor kid. Doomed to a life of ignorance probably, but hey, he’s white so he’ll probably get a good education and a solid job.
