Should children be forced to stand and say the Pledge of Allegience?

Such is the problem with government run schools. In private schools, while there are certain educational requirements that must be meant in terms of math, history, language (all of which are fine), the compulsory stuff is decided by the board of directors (at least where my kids go), and if we don't like it, we can leave. There is a sort of customer satisfaction that comes into play.

And pullups are a scam, Alex. I doubt many NFL linemen can do a single pull up. That's all about body type. Bigger people can rarely do them. I can bench well over my weight but can't do pullups.
