You just can't make this stuff up. After watching the story, what is your reaction? Again like the former Marine who gets banned from his daughter's High School, we seem to be seeing a very aggressive attitude against American Exceptionalism and this is supported by President Obama.
What are your feelings about this and what would be your response?

OK, people. This is America and yes the first Amendment gives us the freedom of speech, but to force an AMERICAN to state the Pledge of Allegiance or sing the National Anthem of another country for the sake of sensitivity. I have to through out the BS card!!!!! This is America people, and the only Anthem or Pledge of Allegiance that should be said or sung is that of this nation. To say otherwise is to spit on the grave of every veteran who died or bled for this nation. Once people cross the boarder into the United States they are subject to our laws and our culture.
Like crossing into a Muslim country or South American counties I would be subject to their laws and culture. They do not bend the rules for me to be sensitive to Americans.
One Anthem and one Pledge of Allegiance and it is that of the United States of America! Point end of conversation, for those who think otherwise leave my country.

OK this question really hit a nerve, if people from other countries want to come to America and become Americans, I get it. Now look where they are, in AMERICA! What schools are they going to, AMERICAN! I know that the melting-pot of nationalities that make up AMERICA, are the backbone that makes this nation great. Ok, then those who come here need to learn ENGLISH and not dictate that this nation accommodate to them and their language or heritage and when they become AMERICANS they are no longer African Americans, Irish American or Mexican Americans; they are Americans and as far as I know there is only one AMERICAN Anthem or Pledge of Allegiance! They can only vocalize one allegiance, TO THE UNITED STAES OF AMERICA as that is where they are and the nationality they accepted. If they want to say the Pledge of allegiance for their old country, go back or say it silently to themselves.
Outright and with indignant tone, NO other Allegiance should be stated in an AMERICAN school or in AMERICA period.

So what!? Saying the Pledge of Allegiance to the U.S. and then saying the Texas Pledge is not pledging allegiance to another sovereign country. Last I checked, Texas is still part of the United States.

Oh boy,what a question.I grew up in Albuquerque,N.M. and the Elementary I went to was Dolores Gonzales.We were educated with Mexican culture.I do remember learning the pledge of allegiance in Spanish but we said it in English in the beginning of the school day.From what I know it is not even required for a student now to recite the pledge of allegiance.It is good for a student to learn culture.However I don't think they should be forced to say it.Until Texas becomes its own nation again then I say no.
