Mason Michalec says he loves his country, but just not the government. "I’m really tired of the gov’t taking advantage of us," Said Michalec. "I don’t agree with the NSA spying on us. And I don’t agree with any of those internet laws."
That’s why he has taken a pledge of sorts, not to say the Pledge of Allegiance with his classmates.
"I’ve basically said it from the time I was in kindergarten till earlier this year, and that’s when I decided I was done saying it."

For most of this year his silent protest has gone unnoticed, but on Wednesday, when a dif teacher observed it for the very first time, the high school sophmore ran into trouble.
