The pledge of allegiance made me personally a better American. Americans have forgotten who they are. The children are not taught good values, like loyalty, honor or pride in our country. Many people died for what we have today or still face the never ending hell of being maimed for the rest of their lives.These liberals are making laws to take guns away from law abiding citizens taking away our rights to bear arms to protect ourselves and our families. Remember the cops are mostly always called after a crime has been commented.The Constitution was written to allow us to defend ourselves.
