I understand this cartoon, but I also understand that Jehovah's Witnesses don't pledge because they feel that it is Blasphemy to pledge allegiance to anything other than allegiance to GOD. They consider the flag an idol and this ceremony idolatry. That should be their right. I am not a Jehovah Witness, nor do I enjoy them knocking on my door, but I respect their right. The same goes for prayer in school. Can you imagine how Jewish kids felt all those years before it was stopped? Each to his own. While a soldier is honorable for serving our country, he is also protecting religious freedom!
