The parents of a ninth grade South Carolina student who said she was accosted by a teacher for quietly walking to class instead of stopping and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance are suing the teacher, principal, district and state education officials.

COLUMBIA, S.C. — The parents of a ninth grade South Carolina student who said she was accosted by a teacher for walking to class instead of stopping and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance are suing the teacher, principal, school district and state education officials.

“I was completely and utterly disrespected,” Barnwell, 15, said at a news conference Thursday, according to. “No one has apologized, no one has acknowledged my hurt. ... The fact that the school is defending that kind of behavior is unimaginable.” But that law also prohibits punishing anyone who refuses to recite the pledge as long as they are not disruptive or do not infringe on others.

Fire the teacher. Learn from this and move on. Money grab.

Follow the money. It’s not about the principle of what happened. It’s a great set up for free moolah!!

She and her parents hate this country so why are we paying taxes to educate this people?

Here's the origin of this matter 😁

It's ok I don't idol worship either. Stick it to them!!!

Well, she's Black. What do they expect? They're disloyal to America. IMHO, they should be shipped back to where they came from. Africa would love them, I'm sure the Africans would be excited (not).

9th grader sues over Pledge of Allegiance confrontationCOLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — The parents of a ninth grade South Carolina student who said she was accosted by a teacher for quietly walking to class instead of stopping and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance are suing the teacher, principal, school district and state education officials. That teacher is lucky they didn't accost my kid, because a lawsuit would be the leat of their problems. Removing my boot from their ass would be 1. Abolish the Pledge of Allegiance. The guy who wrote it never meant for it to be something so authoritarian. You get, what you give. Welcome to reality.
