My argument isn't so much guilt by association; I'm just pointing that the ACLU has a long history of supporting scum. So a lying terrorist cheerleading racist (ward's exploitation of Indian cultures is definitely racist) like ward is their sorta guy.Stephennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-82367738279064599332010-03-10T01:27:28.846-08:002010-03-10T01:27:28.846-08:00"So what," Stephen?

You know, the purpose of this blog you keep forgetting?<br /><br />The Bush administration supported the Saudi regime that financed the 9/11 attacks, but I don't recall your denouncing it for its terrorist ties. So much for your reprehensible guilt-by-association tactic--your favorite ploy when you don't have a legitimate argument.<br /><br />The ACLU's support of Churchill has nothing to do with his ethnicity, Geno. Given that the ACLU is (in)famous for helping neo-Nazis march in a Jewish neighborhood, your belief that it helps only minorities is dead-wrong.<br /><br />Here's some info on the ACLU's support of NAMBLA's right of free speech:<br /><br />http://www.aclu.org/faqs#3_4<br /><br />The ACLU of Massachusetts' represented members of NAMBLA because, while the ACLU does not advocate sexual relationships between adults and children, we do advocate robust freedom of speech. This lawsuit struck at the heart of the First Amendment. It is easy to defend freedom of speech when the message is something people find reasonable. The defense of freedom of speech is most critical when the message is one most people reject.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478763837213733775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-41330128216105777882010-03-08T07:15:50.445-08:002010-03-08T07:15:50.445-08:00The ACLU is a mixed bag.

They pick and choose which civil liberties they defend, and sometimes they do such things as defend racial discrimination, and take the side of intolerant folks who file frivolous lawsuits to censor something they'd rather not see or hear.dmarkshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07269773990064736457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29769707.post-20706358757216703942010-03-08T07:09:37.837-08:002010-03-08T07:09:37.837-08:00ACLU for the most part is for Blacks, Hispanics an...ACLU for the most part is for Blacks, Hispanics and Gay folks as well as for disgruntled fakes like Ward Churchill and perhaps even David Yeagley.
