Have we forgotten about the LA riots?

I would not stop for protestors either.

No, there’s no legal requirements to say the pledge or anything. I’ve never seen it done outside of schools, it’s just a weird tradition that has been carried on.

In my high school nobody in my classes actually said it, but one of the teachers or the student council president would say it over the intercom (we didn’t even stand for it, usually just went back to our work while they talked).

As a younger child in elementary school I remember we were expected to say it, and I do remember a couple kids getting yelled at for not saying it (by the teacher, I don’t think there was any formal punishment). I know some Muslim children would say the whole thing and leave out the “under God” part.

I never paid much attention to it until I got older and realized how weird it was. I’m hoping it goes away eventually.

Exactly what my homepage looks like when I’m not signed into Youtube. Seriously, is this what the average person is watching?

I started watching his channel back when he did the turn signal video a few years ago. I was skeptical at first because I had seen his videos pop up in my recommended a few times and wasn’t interested in them, but after giving it a chance I love his content and watch most of his videos all the way through.

The only videos I haven’t watched in their entirety are the ones on subjects I’m already pretty familiar with. It’s hard to sit through 40 minutes of information you already know, but they’re excellent for learning about new topics.
