A gun is a tool, no better or no worse than any other tool: an axe, a shovel or anything. A gun is as good or as bad as the man using it. Remember that.

And shepherds we shall be, for Thee, my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth to Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti.

If somebody is willing to honestly pledge allegiance to this country I don't care if they do it in Martian.

Yeahhhhhh but. It's a tough call. If they were doing five different languages I get it but was Arabic the best way to kick it off ... where the towers came down? Maybe it's too soon ... I don't know. I probably would have erred on the side of caution. Like I said, tough call and feelings run a lot stronger in the NY Metro area than they do in other parts of the country.

If the pledger doesn't burst into flames, I think its good.

...and since the Congress has yet to codify American English as the official language in the US, it's going to continue to be an issue.
