I never liked doing it. Got in trouble a few times for not doing it, though that didn't matter to me since I got in trouble a lot when I was in school. Those dipshits (the counselor) thought I had "Gender Identity Disorder" and was reacting because of "distress" (Not because I wouldn't say the pledge, I did many worse things than that), they also used the fact that I also had long hair and sometimes would wear a skirt as evidence I had GID. What fun people I spent my childhood with sarcasm I'm glad my parents are and were nice people otherwise I might not be here today.

There was always one kid that sat down during the pledge in my class. None of us thought he was annoying or weird. I admired him.

I sat down because I was lazy.

the pledge of allegiance is brainwashing at NK levels.

I have never seen a kid sit down for O Canada unless they are in a wheelchair. Of course getting sent to the principle's is not worth it but I would admire a kid who had the balls to do it.
