10-Year-Old Refuses To Say Pledge Of Allegiance

Jay and Laura Phillips were shocked to hear their 10-year-old talked back to a teacher at West Fork Middle school Thursday - but were less surprised when they found out why.

Their son told them last weekend he had decided to no longer stand and recite the Pledge of Allegiance at school because he didn’t believe there is liberty and justice for all, especially when it comes to gay rights.

The West Fork School District responded by saying that they don’t require students to say the pledge.
