I have a teacher that "teaches" Economics. I use the word teacher loosely. While I do understand this is a free country, he should not push his political views upon the students. He does not stand for the pledge of allegiance in the morning, nor does he ever say anything positive about the country.
I do go to a public school and we are not forced to stand for the flag in the morning.
On the first day of school, he did say that he does not believe in this country or any form of government. When the pledge began over that P.A, half of the class stood up. On the second day of school, there was only 4 peopel standing. And on the 3rd, I was the only one.
I am no ashmed by any means to stand for my country, but I do wish that I could possibly make a point to him as well as the class.
I will be having a friend come into the clas in the morning to stand with me. Hes not even in my class but I think I will hopefully get my point across. But I would still like some reason on why we as americans stand for our nations flag? Any thoughts on my dillema?
Please be respectful.
Thank you
