Totally awesome. I totally made rock horns and said aloud "hell yeah" at his quote to the teacher. There need to be more people like this kid in general. If more people thought with this kind of conviction for anti-ignorance, the world would be a MUCH better place. I was in the 8th grade when I learned that my mother is lesbian, and after seeing some rather disrespectful governmental operations against homosexuality on the news, I too refused to recite the pledge. Unfortunatly, I was in classes for those with.... "anger issues".. therefore when I refused, the teacher counted to three and then wrestled me to the ground, proceeding to lock me in the "time-out" room until I agreed to say it, which I didnt, so I was locked in there all day. When my mother learned of this, she sued the school board for misconduct, violation of my rights, and child abuse(go mom!). The teacher was fired, and almost put in prison(he got lucky).
