Is your group leaning toward removal of students reciting the pledge completely, or just removal of the phrase? I never force any students to recite anything, but I do expect all of then to stand and respect the pledge and the moment of silence. How do you feel about this small requirement?

At my district, in the student code of conduct that must be signed, there is a clause stating that students cannot be forced to recite the pledge, but are required to stand and remain silent. Is this illegal?

I personally agree that the phrase should be changed back to indivisible, however I also believe it should be required to at least stand and respect the pledge once the phrase is corrected. That is more my patriotic belief than religious.

What is your most common platform, ie pc, xbox, or ps?(I assume you don't do much Wii). Do you have a dedicated group of people you game with or more solo?

He played with some modded controller and was able to hold his own ingame.
