Do you think people in the UK have to greet royalty every other week or something? I've lived here for 34 years and it's never come up.
Oh, I'm sure you're constantly tripping over royalty over there. ๐
But seriously, just the idea of it would bother me, such as:
I just don't think I can swear allegiance to a king or queen, even if it's largely symbolic.
just wait until you hear about what kids in the US have to repeat every morning at school...
I guess I find that less bad, but I wish it would instead focus on the concepts in the Constitution, not the flag and Republic. I'd rather rewrite it to something like this:
That reminds me, I need to ask my kids if they're forced to do that. They go to a charter school, and I don't remember seeing a flag in each room. But our state is quite conservative, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was still a thing. That said, they're minors, so any pledge cannot, by definition, be binding in any way.
