Just something else that give the "fake news" crowd more ammunition. Folks on both sides should call it out for what it is.
Did you even read the headline of the story? It does not say he was arrested for not reciting the pledge. It said he was arrested after a dispute with his teacher over the pledge. What part of that is fake? What is the point of news if they don't give the full context and explain the details.
You agreed that the teacher was in the wrong yet you want to hide that fact? Thousands of kids get suspended and even arrested at schoo; every day. The only reason this story was newsworthy was the context.
