Liberal moonbat parents just love to use their children as political pawns to push their anti-American agenda. The latest example comes out of North Dakota, where “free thinker” parents are upset because their special snowflake had to follow the rules just like all the other kids, and stand up for the Pledge of Allegiance.

Jesse Adams, of New Town, ND, tells the Minot Daily News that school administrators violated his son’s First Amendment rights by making him stand for the pledge.

“We’re trying to raise free thinkers,” he told the newspaper.

Yes, Mr. Adams is one of those parents.

When his child continued to defy the directions of his teacher, the youngster was told to stand in the hallway for the duration of the pledge. Mr. Adams said that amounts to bullying.

… Superintendent Mark Bluestone is a military veteran and a patriot. He told the Associated Press the child was placed in the hallway to avoid disrupting other students who wondered why they could not sit during the pledge.

It seems pretty clear that, for the school administrators, this is as much about respecting authority as it is the Pledge. Raising “free thinkers” is great and all, but free thinking does not equal letting their spoiled brat of a child do whatever they want during class without any repercussions.
