Is America better off since we got rid of these things?

Frankly, I don't think praying before school and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance is the reason there are shootings. There are shootings because parents aren't being parents. They are dropping their kids off at school and letting the teacher be the parent.

LT Brad McInnis You can say that again. I have some stories that would curl your hair. I think the reason there are so many shooting is the media glamorizes it by making it the top story then you have some kid who wants to go out in a blaze of glory and be famous for it.

We didn't pray, but we had a bible class at a nearby church one hour per week.

We still say the pledge (State law) which is optional for students to stand and recite and the moment of silence (also state law) but the teacher is not allowed to lead the students in it.

None of those things were removed...so...prayer in school wasn't removed kids can still pray and they still say the pledge. It's just not mandatory.
