The pledge itself is creepy but isn't a free speech issue. Compelled recitation of the pledge by agents of the state, like schools, at least to me, is.

"Free speech" to me means you can say whatever the hell you want.

Occasionally being compelled to say something is also bad, but a separate issue to me.
