Chapter29 Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 ACLU...defending your child's access to internet porn in public libraries. ACLU...defending a convicted pedophile's right to live next to you without you knowing their history. ACLU...providing legal counsel to NAMBLA. ACLU...suing to give 6th Amendment rights to combatants captured on the battlefield. Just sayin...
tac airlifter Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 Who is JSOC? I think it's that boring group of nobody's who plan exercises every now and then. 1
JBueno Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 This one's being filed from the ACLU-Karachi branch office, no?
PapaJu Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 I think these people read a little too much into Seymour Hersh's supposed revelations about JSOC being a super-top-secret assassin squad that no one knew about until he wrote about them.
SuperWSO Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 I think it's that boring group of nobody's who plan exercises every now and then. Nope, that is JFCOM. JSOC actually does something.
nsplayr Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 (edited) Nope, that is JFCOM. JSOC actually does something. Facepalm. Run faulty sarcasm detector checklist. Edited September 12, 2010 by nsplayr
itsokimapilot Posted September 12, 2010 Posted September 12, 2010 Nope, that is JFCOM. JSOC actually does something. How far down this road are we gonna go?
Baseops.Net Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 That's far enough. Please discuss the frivolous lawsuit; don't bother speculating about the unit in question (or the identity/mission of any SOF unit for that matter).

ACLU....defended your right to use a swear word or put up your middle finger without being arrested for disorderly. ACLU....argued, won, and overturned the states ban on interracial marriages. ACLU....assisted in the Brown vs Board of Education case which led to a ban on racial segregation. ACLU....defended Rush Limbaugh during his drug trial stating law enforcement should have no right to look at his private medical records. ACLU....defended Christian students' right to preach in public parks. ACLU....defended Christian students wearing anti-Islam shirts to Florida public school.

ACLU....Intervenes on behalf of Christian valedictorian, Michigan high schools agrees to stop censoring religious yearbook entries. Interesting - hadn't heard of those cases. Usually they seem to be against Christian valedictorian's right to religious references/prayer. Would be a lot more supportive of them if they supported the 2nd amendment as zealously as the others.
bfargin Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 Just sayin... You have to take the bad with the good. Maybe, but they are pretty much idiots who happen to do the right thing every once in a while, as opposed to nonpolitical motivated defense of the constitution per se.

Ah! But they have. Granted the number of 2nd amendment cases pales in comparison to the number of 1st amendment cases they take on, but it does happen. ACLU petitions court to get man's guns returned from Broward Sheriff's Office ACLU Defends Gun Rights in New Orleans ACLU of Nevada Opposes Bill Stripping Due Process Rights of Gun Owners If you want, I can provide a link to the stories of them defending the Christians right. Just let me know. Edited September 13, 2010 by Vertigo
Guest Passingby Posted September 13, 2010 Posted September 13, 2010 Maybe, but they are pretty much idiots who happen to do the right thing every once in a while, as opposed to nonpolitical motivated defense of the constitution per se. Doesn't the gigantic list of things in this thread that people on both sides would disagree with kinda completely blow what you're saying out of the water. It is a shame they don't do more 2nd amendment cases, but honestly, I'll take them defending all the other amendments and then I'll drop a buck on the NRA, too. Covered. 1
FlyingBull Posted September 14, 2010 Posted September 14, 2010 The ACLU isn't as much liberal or conservative as it is extreme libertarianism in it's purest form.
Guest Posted September 14, 2010 Posted September 14, 2010 The ACLU isn't as much liberal or conservative as it is extreme libertarianism in it's purest form. Love 'em or hate 'em, they form part of the fabric the makes this country great.
