Every accusation is a confession.
They’re so hard for patriotism because they themselves are traitorous cunts and they assume everyone is and needs to be kept in line.
I got in-school suspension for refusing to stand for the pledge, they told the kid from Puerto Rico they’d ship him back on the dingy he sailed in on.
Damn, when/where was that? I was raised in Alabama and didn’t stand/recite the pledge a few times in high school around 2010 and didn’t get in trouble for it. Definitely got some snide remarks and looks, but never actually in trouble.
Phillipsburg High School, New Jersey. IIRC. ~2003
Not long after 9.11 so things were a bit tense I guess.
Yeah especially so close to NYC. That makes sense, unfortunately.
Im still blown away at the amount of our population that doesn’t know puerto rico can come and go to any of the 50 states whenever they want…
