Murica? Do you think that it is right for College Students to say Pledge Against the USA?

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...

Prof has no respect for the rights and privileges that he has. He's a fine example of those that are willing to allow you to fight to the death for his right to free speech and cut your pay and benefits while you're dying because what YOU do is not that sophisticated or academic to warrant your level of pay.
tsk tsk the country is full of these people. I won't say man because he hasn't paid for the privilege or or earned the respect to be called a man.
Put him in with 1LT L S and myself in our Old Fogies Battalion and get him rucked up for a walk. Hmmmm....

Hell no' if they dont like it here or are anti gov then they should just plain leave this country. This country has been bought with the blood of its armed force's , These politically correct cry baby wimps have no idea what it means to be loyal to their flag , it is somthing that their mommy and daddy should of taught them, but then again maybe their parents never served and are also thank less takers and complainers

Well as a state run college that probably gets some federal funding, partly going to pay his salary, shouldn't he renounce his pay check or remain a hypocrite?

I went to college late, I was 24 or 25 when I started. Only had one super lib teacher, and he wasn't that bad. It was the 90's. I didn't hesitate a few times about different things, to let the instructor/profs know that I was a grown man and mommy and daddy aren't paying for this, and that they( instructor/prof) were there for me, and I was a customer. They'd listen.
That's the first thing I'd say to this guy in Denver, " I'm paying for an education, pal, and your NOT making me repeat that vile bullshit."
The one class with the super lib prof was graded entirely on research papers based on books he would assign. All very liberal books, of course, covering the basics; womens issues, minority issues, gay issues and Utopian society. I thought those were tired subjects back in the 90's! Anyhow, I would respond in my essay with the proper party line as far as what I believed the author was trying to say, and I would add an extra page or two at the end of the essay explaining why I thought the author was full of it. I got an A for the class. Don't know if I would now...? Ha!

I think that this is very disrespectful in an American Civilization class. It gives the professor, a voice of power in said class a doorway to young impressional minds. If it was meant as a satire to start a debate or for a critical writing assignment, it would have been better off in a philosophy class.

Obviously if the college does not fire him then they support his views, due to the fact that he was on the clock when spreading his rhetoric.

I'm all about Freedom of Speech, even when I disagree with someone's opinion, but this professor is going too far. He needs to be dismissed for sedition or as a subversive. A college's policy for "academic freedom" should not cover being a traitor. This is not teaching "critical thinking."
Why don't service members take full advantage of their education benefits? Because there are so many professors like this across the country that they have to worry about being singled out for their service or becoming a target in a class for some jackass like this guy.
If this school accepts any type of payment from the VA for veterans education benefits or tuition assistance for Reserves/Guardsmen, they need to FIRE this individual for cause, immediately!

So this is what happens when hippies decide to get jobs and still want to "affect change in the system." I'm sorry, I thought teachers at all levels were supposed to teach facts, not spit out their dogma because I am stuck in a class that the school says I have to take. My bad, guess I was wrong.

I have no problem with him trying to show a negative light on our country IF it is to foster critical thinking and push students to form thier own conclusions and NOT to "re-educate" students on "the way things are."
But I find that abortion of the pledge to be completely sickening and belligerently disrespectful.
I don't know what is actually taught in his class and for what purpose but the existance of that so-called "pledge" makes it highly doubtful that anything of real substance is being taught and that's a shame.
If it's just a propaganda class where you learn nothing but the professor's view then it should be scrapped for something actually beneficial for students.
