Good. It's time we put a stop to excessive knee-jerk "God and Country" nonsense and glorification of war. We have DOD using taxpayer dollars to pay sports teams to stage military worship nights. Somebody needs to press the Reset button here. It's all gone over the line and gotten out of hand.

It's been reversed, a temporary win against the insanity that encroaches on us all.

On here many say we are crazy to think that MOST colleges are VERY, openly liberal.

""I am sick and tired of how all of society has to ... cater to the vocal minority of the easily offended," Dori said. "If they don't like the flag and the pledge being part of this chapel — don't attend the chapel. Don't attend the ceremony. To deny everybody else, that is the tyranny of the minority imposing their will."

Excellent post!

Says you.

Maybe you should find a new country to live in. Millions of brown skinned illegals will gladly take your place and I would rather have them here and not whining about it.

Who the hell is truly offended by this day of remembrance other than the unpatriotic progressive demolibs who post here? The article never really says unless it's hidden deep down inside like so many liberal journalists like to do. They love to play slight of hand at all times hoping everyone is too dumb to question.

Sounds like a private school. If so they can do as they wish.....sure you can complain also but.....before you do you might want to consider all your thoughts on whether private businesses should be able to do as they wish or not.
