Communist China would support these tactics, but in America, we won't stand for it.

Email I received from the Colorado GOP, any reason to raise a buck.
No info on Shane's political leanings

"Colorado Republican Committee.
Last week Shane Fuhrman, the mayor of Silverton, Colorado, held a trustee meeting where he explained he was suspending the Pledge of Allegiance because of direct and indirect threats.

THIS HAS OFFICIALLY GONE TOO FAR.

Suspending the Pledge of Allegiance violates EVERY single person's First Amendment rights. The radical left should not be pushing their anti-American beliefs on Americans.
PROTECT THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
This is yet another way Democrats are working to take away American rights and push big government.

Our founding fathers would be disappointed to see what America is slowly turning into, and it starts from people like Shane Fuhrman. Communist China would support these tactics, but in America, we won't stand for it.

STEP UP TODAY to protect our rights and tell the woke mob that we will always defend the Pledge of Allegiance.


PROTECT THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE
TELL SHANE FUHRMAN TO STEP DOWN
PROTECT AMERICAN VALUES
America is and will always be the greatest nation on God's green earth. And we are doing everything we can to keep it that way.

Thank you,
Colorado GOP"

China has its own flag, national anthem, songs, etc. Bringing up China in this context is just racist.

I think it’s fine not to start meetings with pledges or oaths.
