Ok, so my school this year has decided to make everyone do the pledge of allegiance. Basically, if someone doesn't do the pledge, they get detention. I've officially decided I'm not doing it because of the indoctrination of the entire thing, thoughts?

I've been here... I have been in trouble for not standing to say the pledge.
I don't believe in America. That isn't a popular stance, but after fighting the school for a little while, they relented. They cannot make you, not really, if it goes against what you believe in, they can't make you.

If you are doing it for the sake of insubordination and rebellion... just do the pledge, if there is a real reason, fight it.
