just wondering

hey guys, i was just thinking, back in high school after that whole issue with the pledge of allegance and if people should have to say it or not, one of the teachers at my school would say the pledge every monday morning and i remember being in study hall and seeing like 3/4 of the kids stand up and look at the flag and the other 1/4 just sit there are not even react. i was just thinking how rude that was and i am wondering what you guys think about it? i know that this is kinda random but i am trying to write a paper for another class and i am thinking about everything else in the world besides that paper lol, but yeah i was thinking, wow there are people in this country that are willing to fight and die for this country and then there are others that wont even stand up for 45 seconds once a week, it just really amazed me. i think the reason that i randomly thought of this is because two girls that i knew in high school are at their training for national guard and i was reading one of the emails from one of them and it just really shocked me to think that there is a large possiblilty that they might end up fighting over seas soon.... wow, thats some guts if you ask me, i cant even imagine doing half the things that they do.....
