10-Year-Old Won't Pledge Allegiance To A Country That Discriminates Against Gays

10-Year-Old Won't Pledge Allegiance To A Country That Discriminates Against Gays

"I've always tried to analyze things because I want to be lawyer," Will said. "I really don't feel that there's currently liberty and justice for all."

After asking his parents whether it was against the law not to stand for the pledge, Will decided to do something. On Monday, Oct. 5, when the other kids in his class stood up to recite the pledge of allegiance, he remained sitting down. The class had a substitute teacher that week, a retired educator from the district, who knew Will's mother and grandmother. Though the substitute tried to make him stand up, he respectfully refused. He did it again the next day, and the next day.

DC board of elections declares no popular vote on gay marriage-rights

(Washington, DC) Civil rights triumphed over another failed attack from advocates of discrimination when today, the D.C. Board of Elections and Ethics rejected a proposed referendum to put the rights of a minority up for a vote.

The proposed effort to limit the rights of District residents was brought by Stand For Marriage and Maryland pastor, Bishop Harry Jackson. The BOEE denied the referendum as a violation of the Human Rights Act of the District of Columbia.
“Equality should never be up for debate or denied on a ballot,” said D.C. resident Michael Crawford, Co-chair of D.C. for Marriage. “We only want what every other American already has – the right to marry the person we love.”

Rev. Cedric Harmon, a D.C. resident and a representative of D.C. Clergy United for Marriage Equality, a group of nearly 200 Washington, D.C. faith leaders representing all eight wards of the District and a variety of religious faiths added the following statement in support of the BOEE’s decision:

”It is shameful when religious leaders fail to uphold the Christian teachings of our faith by trying to institutionalize a second-class citizenship on our neighbors. People of faith have worked for generations to achieve social justice for all people — regardless of race, creed, class, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. We serve our entire flock, and there is no justification under God that we should discriminate against any of God’s children.

“The District of Columbia has not voted on the civil rights of a minority since the Civil War, when a majority prevented freed male slaves from gaining the right to vote. Today, the Board of Elections and Ethics reminded us that human rights should never be put to a vote. As members of the clergy who support equal rights for all citizens, and who struggle to achieve social justice in the District of Columbia, we applaud the BOEE for standing up for human rights in the face of discrimination.”

Here's what garysher is going to ask me next:

Do you think your Mum's friend's uncle's brother's nephew is afraid that someone his brother's uncle's friend's Mum knows is a homosexual?

garysher / yesonH8, your questions just get more and more irrational with every passing day.

..and you still have yet to prove that your voice is more masculine than mine. ;-)

Lets hear your 'straight manly' voice now in a video response, or are you too afraid that I'll find out more personal information about you (because you're too stupid to stay anonymous after trolling on the internet for ~10 years)??

Hmmmm ... I didn't realize it before, but it sounds as if Gary Sher wants to have "carnal knowledge" of Yamuna without her consent ... which constitutes rape ... let alone violating some kind of Christian tablet law!

Shame on you FOFF! You are evil! Have you told the week-olde salmon skin about your evil thoughts? Perhaps you should.

I can hear you beating off... more >
