Chewbacca I'm not argueing that the Black Panthers only used violence in Non-self defense. I saying that given the history of the symbol in the USA (right or wrong). It is disrespectful, and given that the current climate here in the USA is that the offended get stop what ever activity is offending them. The students that were offended by his raised fist get to stop his activity. Thats why I say if you want to say the Pledge with "under God" say it, if you don't Don't, and if you don't want to say the pledge at all don't say it at all. Just keep it out of the courts, once that door is opened, it swings both ways and it could and will be used against something you do.
Besides next time you get cut off in traffic by some Idiot, just remember that Idiot could very well serve on a jury one day making decisions thats why this kind of stuff shouldn't be in the courts
