@KrispyApplez If you try to listen to what he is saying, he is not saying that he doesn't want to say the Pledge, just that he believes in its ideas so much that he refuses to say it without all of them being true! Most kids just don't care and parrot it. I personally think that having to pledge allegiance to your country feels like what they did in Nazi countries, but this kid for sure has the right to his own opinions and I am a fan of him now.
@ItalkYoulistenOk I'm from the U.S. and you don't know the half of it. It gets really bad here. Every free and civilized country has some major issues, but America has countless problems that we are not willing to resolve for the sake of greed, hatred and religion. I'm trying to do what I can to help resolve these problems.
@mskid68 There is also a 5th and 6th amendment right to lock you up and whoop your sorry ass into next year. With all due respect; you can jump off a bridge.
wow... I dont think many of you get what hes saying... I dont think that we can deny the fact that there is stillalot of racism in our country. And not everyone has equal rights, even though all men and women are created equal.
I personally don't think that gays, lesbians, or heterosexuals should be allowed to be together. Heterosexuals are capable of making children, and the human race needs to die. Slowly, painfully, die. Gays and lesbians are just downright annoying, and given the fact that I don't really believe love exists, (it's not love, it's being biologically attracted to a mate) its impossible for them to feel something that doesn't exist.
This 10yr. old has a 1st. Amendment right! He can scream like hell, when the Dr. cuts my boot out of his ass. He also has a 2nd. Amendment right to shoot my leg off while I am kicking his ass.There is also a 4th Amendment right to have a judge signe papers to retreive my boot from his ass. I would whoop this kids ass.!!!
I would never recite the Pledge of Allegiance until they either removed the 1954 addition of "under god" or replaced with with "One Nation under The Flying Spaghetti Monster".
I would have to disagree with that you said in the comment bar. While the Flag DOES stand for our Nation, so do our Representatives. They REPRESENT our country and we disagree with them, then yes, we disagree with what is going on IN our country. Yes, he does have those rights from the United States of America, but he wasn't saying that he was against ALL of the Pledge, just the part about "Liberty and Justice for all"
I ALWAYS say "with liberty and justice for some," after the pledge. I'm fourteen and in eighth grade and i am pleased to say that i think for myself. This kid is awesome!!
Be mad at the govenment not at the flag. Its not the countrys falt that gays dont have right s its the govenment. The flag and pledge are for the country not the govenment
@jfabproductions Government had "under god" injected into the pledge as a way to further the lie that America is a "christian nation".So apparently the pledge is for the government.
odd hes only ten how would he know any thing about marriage at the same time be able to make a full argument about it ether that Kidd is really smart or he was put up to this?
@TATERxSALAD44 I think people should be asking the same thing about children claiming to be christian or muslim.It's fummy how nobody questions that shit.
@TATERxSALAD44 Dude. you're acting like a 10 year old doesnt live in the real world. Well guess what. Kids can see everything. They live in it, they see it, they breathe it, and they can be smart and have their own and very educated oppinions. Take me for example, I'm only 11 years old and I'm already looking into my rights, my beliefs and what I can do to help. I also speak like an 8th grader when I'm only in 6th. I agree with this kid 100%, the flag and pledge promises me equal oppertunity..
Well, this little publicity seeking brat has had his 15 minutes of fame. I hope he's happy now. If he was my kid, he wouldn't be able to sit down for a week.
it looks like another liar hoping for all the attention and a story like that one guy and how he lied that their was a kid in aballoon in the air that he made.
@ItalkYoulistenOk I hope you mean the fact that you need to say the Pledge of Allegiance to your country like in a totalitarian state :/ Not the fact that a bright kid is giving people an example of how to stand up for your humanitarian ideals in spite of having figures of authority trying to belittle your stance.
atheist respect everyone believes, include religion. we might laugh behind someone if he have a really funny believes like UFO abduction but we still respect them and their choice.
it's only when one religion try to change the law and society that's when atheist jump out and say enough is enough!
The pledge of allegiance is manipulation. Its one and only aim is to bolster a false feeling of unquestionable nationalism into children so that when religious leaders and politicians want to send them to wage war on other countries, all they have to do is pull out a flag and a fucking cross, and say 'god bless America. Fight for freedom' in every speech.
The pledge is Americans version of kneeling to Mecca. Americans are fucking idiots.
The father is radiant with pride of his son, and I would be too in his position. The kid is tolerant, sharp as a razor, and has balls the size of Russia. I wish there were more people like in the world - his understanding of life is way ahead that of most adults'.
So, he won't say it until racism and sexism just disapear? The poor kid is confusing immortal problems like racism and sexism with real problems like gay marriage. Gay marriage may become legal, but homophobia will never die.
What a classic example of a kid who hasn't been disciplined enough or even at all. Not only that, he's obviously being used by his father for "five minutes of fame". It looks like he's getting ques from him.
the pledge of alligence talks about god. america was built on separation of church and state, so why should people say it in the first place? people have the right to speak, they should have the rights to shut their mouths. this kid is awesome.
@M15CY the original pledge of allegiance doesnt even includes the words "under god". It was pushed in 1954, during an era when communism and such was a concern and fear, by the church. If they just revert it back there should be no problems. I agree fullt with the person that uploaded this. This pledge is a pledge to the flag which stands for our nation and the we stand for liberty and justice, which in fact we do. that liberty is allowing him to speak him and gay ppl to speak and protest.
@M15CY except you're wrong. the founding fathers were puritans. seperation of Church and was so politics wouldn't interfere (sp) with religion; not the other way around.
The flag is the flag. It's a hunk of cloth that represents America and all it stands for, both good and bad. Apparently this kid understands that by pledging allegiance to this flag, one is not only saying "I support what is right and good with this country", but also "I support what is wrong with this country:" So amen to this kid for refusing to make a tacit allegiance to policies he doesn't agree with by standing (or sitting, in his case) against the symbol for them.
the flag represents the freedom of speech, but you think this boy shouldn't actually exercise that freedom? My son refuses to say the pledge for both spritual and political reasons and I support him.
Yes, more gays. Less man made "uncureable" viruses. Less wars created for the sole purpose of population control. Every gay couple represents 2 or so people who won't have to die horrible and painful deaths in the name of population control.
children can change the world......................the light and the innocent and the honesty and the kindness comes all from children..................... Man should listen more to children.
Only an ignorant moron would think that this was about the flag. It's sad that a 10 year old is more open minded, tolerant and intelligent than a lot of grown adults.
Smart kid. Smarter than anyone who thinks marriage is sacred in a nation where divorce is legal for any reason, including boredom. Or that homosexuality is "wrong" because it's less common.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow

I think the main issue is that a 10 year old is basically holding his breath until he sees what this country should be and THEN will agree with it. And until it meets his satisfaction, he won't participate in the Pledge.
YET, he enjoys the freedom of speech all Americans are rightful to, and in the same action, opposes that same Democracy.
Like I said in the sidebar, if he has a problem with this issue, it isnt the FLAG that takes away that right, but the Supreme Court.
guys, this isn't about the flag. he understands the link between patriotism and the lack of questioning of the government. The "sad" part is that gays don't have rights, and that scutter didn't pick that out. It's about gays, not flags.
And doc, its not as though he's denouncing all of America by not saying the pledge- being progressive is not unpatriotic. not saying the pledge is the only outlet of expression available to a ten yr old. you expect him to appeal to the supreme court?
