Does that mean you are now admitting persecution happens? Then you've just agreed the pledge is not voluntary.

Where I was at school, it was 'cool' to get out of saying the pledge.
But the teacher shouldn't be telling Jews to wear the star of David - that is analogous to telling children to stand and recite the pledge.
The proper analogy is the teacher giving Jews the CHOICE to wear the Star of David. After all, you did say it was a choice.
