So in other words, my protest would be better served standing?

Ok, I get it now. I am not supposed to disagree with others.

The fact that the country gave me the right to sit down is why I use it.

What you are saying is I should stand because I have the right not to? Right now, I am in school and the pledge is about to come on. In my mind, I am looking around this classroom and saying to myself, "all these kids were told since kindergarden to stand for the pledge. They don't understand yet what the pledge really is."

Conformity.

To protect my rights, I will use them as long as possible. You know that saying, "Give me liberty or give me death?" Well, it's coming back. Right now in our country, the majority of people believe gays should not get married. O yeah, "liberty and justice for all."

Lets see how long that lasts.
