I have said it all along but this is just part of a populace that is growing and that is anti-USA. I think it is time for us to put a reality hat and stop with the partisan shenanigans of a small portion of this society. Here below is the utter non-sense:

"If you sign up for Denver college professor Charles Angeletti's American Civilization class, be forewarned that you're going to have to recite his invective-filled 'New Pledge' -- and according to some of his students, also be ready to swallow a big helping of his politics.

Angeletti, who teaches at Metropolitan State University of Denver, has students learn an anti-American spoof of the Pledge of Allegiance that denounces the U.S. as a Republican-controlled bastion of injustice, all while spewing his own far-left brand of politics, according to current and former students.

“I pledge allegiance to and wrap myself in the flag of the United States Against Anything Un-American,” reads Angeletti's version. “And to the Republicans for which it stands, two nations, under Jesus, rich against poor, with curtailed liberty and justice for all except blacks, homosexuals, women who want abortions, Communists, welfare queens, treehuggers, feminazis, illegal immigrants, children of illegal immigrants, and you, if you don't watch your step.”

“We’re very racist, we’re very repressive, we’re very Christian oriented, we don’t tolerate other kinds of thinking in this country.”
- Charles Angeletti, professor at Metropolitan State University

What are your views other than it was Fox News? Are you really for America and this? Leave your voting cards at home...

It is so funny to me that people spend so much time protesting against America. Spewing anti-American crap, attempting to gain their 5 minutes of fame (thanks to social media), not realizing that in many places in the world, they would be jailed for saying, posting or publishing the same stuff. The 1st Amendment protects his right to spew whatever this stupid sh@t he wants, but it also protects my right to say...F#CK YOU DOUCHE BAG!

SSgt (Join to see), there's a real easy fix for this guy. He doesn't like it here, I'll be happy to pay for his one way fare to the country of his choice, as I'm sure many others on this forum would be glad to do. No dual citizenship; it's clear he doesn't want it. However, confront this guy with such an offer, and I'll bet he says he wants to stay right here. Let's see, Iran, China, North Korea, and on and on. Wonder in which of these countries he could run his mouth as he does here in the good ole U.S. of A.?

It's a pretty common tactic to challenge someone's credibility with no basis when you don't have anything substantive to offer in response to their argument. Cute meme by the way.

I think every American has the right to freedom of speech, however to express your views in a derogatory manner against America in a public institution is so disrespectful. Wow this is taking ideology to the unknown and then some. SMDH...unbelievable nowadays in society-just my opinion.

The article does say "be prepared to recite". That does seem to indicate he would force them to say it out loud.
And how do you indoctrinate Americans to be American? The pledge of Allegiance is just that, a pledge to be loyal to our country.

Can someone other than yourself delete your comments and responses? I know this isn't the right place to ask, but this is the thread that my response and comments were deleted from.
