Elementary School Nurse Will Determine If Students Are Patriotic Enough For Her Services

You pledge allegiance to Flag Cat right now!
It is a well-established fact that any American, for any reason, can refuse to say the Pledge Of Allegiance, as an exercise of their First Amendment rights. Perhaps they find it creepy, or arent too keen on the religious part of it (which, contrary to popular conservative myth, was only added in 1954, and not by Jesus himself). Perhaps they HATE AMERICA, but probably not. This was established by the Supreme Court in 1943, in a case called West Virginia Board Of Education v. Barnette, so its not exactly breaking news. But some people seem to have been playing hooky from reading their 1943 SCOTUS decisions, because a school nurse at Wilson Middle School in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, decided to unleash on, and then refuse to treat, an eighth grade student who chose to exercise right to remain seated when the daily Pledge Time happened.
According to a letter sent by the American Humanist Association to the Carlisle Area School District, a young student happened to be in the school nurses office when it was time to say the Pledge, and she just stayed seated, like she always does. Well, this chapped that nurses anus RIGHT UP, so she made it personal:
She reports that subsequently, when it was her turn to be seen by the nurse, the nurse asked loudly, Why didnt you stand for the Pledge? The student replied that the Pledge exercise is voluntary and that no explanation for opting out is needed. Shockingly, the nurse responded by ordering her out of the room, yelling, Fine! Then leave! I have the right to not service you!
Oh, good job at grown-up-ing, Nurse Friendly! Did she then add I know you are but what am I? for good measure? And what in the hell school did this supposed medical professional go to, where she learned that you dont have to service any patient (gross choice of words, jerk-off nurse) who refuses to service the American flag?
The child was crying, so she went to the office to call her mom, but apparently the nurse followed, barking orders to the office staff, saying, She isnt calling a parent until I have a long conversation with her! Oh really? Sounds like somebody thinks shes the President Of Schools, as opposed to the person who makes sure none of the kids eat too much Ritalin for lunch.
