Message | I entirely support your compromise. (When making the bill, I could not decide between this, or not making them sing it at all.) |
Date | 03:28:06, September 02, 2008 CET | From | Nasjonal Front | To | Debating the Singing the National Anthem in Schools |
Message | We remain happy with the current legislation. The Nasjonal Front is very patriotic and thus would be unlikely to vote for a reduction in all things state orientated. |

Message | It is like a book I am reading about this 1 issue, "Nothing but the Truth." In it, a kid is forced to stand with respect, like the rest of his school, for the National anthem of the U.S.A. at the beginning of school each day, but he argues that his freedom of speech overrides that, so he hums along everyday until he makes his point across. |

Message | Think about it. Patriotic people would be able to still sing along even if they weren't required to. It is not a requirement to sing along, but rather a choice. It will not be risking any lives or what not by removing a requirement to be patriotic at schools. Forcing people to sing is just not right! |
Date | 21:02:02, September 02, 2008 CET | From | Nasjonal Front | To | Debating the Singing the National Anthem in Schools |
Message | If anyone does not like singing and showing respect for our great nation, the Nasjonal Front suggests they go and live elsewhere. |
Date | 23:53:18, September 02, 2008 CET | From | Liberal Conservatives | To | Debating the Singing the National Anthem in Schools |
Message | I feel this is a fair compromise |
