Saying the pledge in a different language gets Americans mad at you apparently.
Link above. And specifically the Arabic language. Now, I read in the article that it was alright to say the Pledge in French and Spanish, but many people get butthurt over saying it in Arabic?
Opinions on this? For me, it seems silly that some people get mad over it seeing as it was approved to say in French and Spanish and no one cared about it. I'm laughing hard at the 4 tweets saying, "One Nation under Allah".
Also, let's add to the end: "With Liberty and Justice for [u]all[/u]."

Means nothing to me if they're saying it in a different language, they're still pledging their allegiance to my favorite country on Earth, so I'll be more than happy to support them and their right to say it in a different language.

1 RispondiAre kids forced to pledge? If so then that's stupid, people don't have to pledge to anything they don't want.

9 RisposteOn another note - people so upset with the talk of Allah in the Pledge now know how non-Christians, non-Jews, and non-Muslims feel about "under God" being in the Pledge.

2 RisposteModificato da Seggi: 5/12/2013 12:37:12 AMlol at pledging allegiance to your country. How -blam!-ing self-important and jingoistic can you get?

It should be "Under Odin" Why don't you mortals understand that Odin is the All-Father? -
3 Risposte-blam!-ing really? What idiot got pissed off about a multicultural club reciting the pledge of allegiance in Arabic? White trash redneck with seven kids and a nipple from the government permanently stuck in his cheek? -blam!-ing Allah.
-
10 RispostePersonally, whoever gets mad at that is an idiot. Now, if each person wanted to change the deity America is under that's fine by me. I like to think "under God" means under your supernatural creator. Of course though, it originally was meant as the Christian God.
-
5 RispostePeople actually say the pledge? Lol.
-
I don't see what's so terrible about this. A language is a language and it's not going to kill you. Terrorists can kill you, but a language cannot. It's not defiling our country. The ideas they are expressing when they say the pledge are the same in any language.
-
Yeah, that'll show that Arabic speaking hoodlum to show pride for his country by using the First Amendment! -blam!- the cornerstone of our democracy, WOOOOOOOOO!
-
1 RispondiMy opinion: no matter what language you say the pledge in, you're still proving your honor for America, so I see no reason to be upset about that.

2 RisposteModificato da DE4THINC4RN4TE: 5/11/2013 10:03:00 PMThe United States doesn't even have an official language. Pepul r dumd.

29 RisposteI get more irritated with Foreigners who move here, because their previous country was shitty and they will be waiving their previous nation's flag!.. during an American celebration.
-
3 RisposteAmerica was founded on the belief that you would be allowed to practice your religion without persecution. They add "under (Christian)God" to the pledge of allegiance which every child at a public school has to recite. Makes sense.. it wasn't even added until 1948.
-
That idiotic mantra should be erased from existence.

ITT: Retards raging at retards
-
4 RisposteWell that's because it's [i]America[/i] and Americans speak [i]American[/i] If you don't say the pledge in English then what's the point in saying at all when it is stated in English? That would not be what the pledge says because it wasn't written by some dirty paki.

CUZ DEM TURRORISTS SPEEK DAT URBIC ER WHATEVER ITS CAWLLED. DIS IS UHMERRRICCAAA!!!!!!

8 RisposteI used to get in trouble in school for not saying the "under god" part.
-
It's only the "Under God" part that makes this an issue, it seems. "Allah" is immediately associated with Islam and Muslims, which is why so many are upset with this.
-
1 RispondiFunny how removing the "under God" bit from the Pledge would have made this a non-issue.
-
Because Arabic means Muslim which means terrorist, duh [please note the heavy sarcasm, but some people really believe that]
-
One nation under Allah gave me a chuckle
-
I'm apathetic. I never said the pledge.
