The ACLU's view of freedom of speech is to coerce the government to FORCE students to watch something they don't agree with. The ACLU's interpretation of the First Amendment has come down to banning Christianity from the schools on the one hand and compelling the joys of the gay agenda to be shoved down the throats of a captive audience on the other hand. In a perverse kind of way, it makes twisted sense. This view of freedom of expression ACLU-style says more about the degenerate state of the civil liberties organization than it does about its critics. Maybe Nat Hentoff could offer some thoughts here.

I have absolutely had it up to Green River! Every day somewhere in the country these f***s are getting away with another outrage. I can understand that maybe an underfunded school district is afraid to take them on but the Pentagon? How are they finding so easy to push institutions and branches of government around? Are there any conservative legal scholars out there who can do more than whine and bellyache in the best republican fashion? From what little I know I suspect that in the majority of such cases the district or town, or bureau in question is in fact in cahoots with the ACLU and "loses" on purpose (then pays their legal fees). But there has got to be some kind of pro-active strategy that can carry the war to them for a change. I am just so sick of the all whining and impotent teeth-gnashing I hear day-in, day-out on this subject. Can't we actually DO something?

The ACLU communists need to be harassed and chastened at every opportunity. They are among the sickest and most contemptible organizations in the country. Mass murderers, Nazis, and homosexuals are their pet causes. Their chief hatred is of God and all things Christian.

They are the enemy. It's time to find out how they get their money and attack them at their Bolshevik source.

We need to be aware of these liberal Nazis. Their strongarm tactics are reminiscent of fascism.

The ACLU needs to be reminded it is not a government agency (though it is being financed by taxpayers).

The ACLU is drunk with its self-generated power over American culture.

All the ACLU needs now are jackboots and arm bands.

I sometimes wonder how the ACLU would see it is every time anyone encountered an ACLU lawyer, that lawyer gets pummeled, all in the interest of tolerance, mind you.

I pray that God will save and change the 'homosexuals' and their enablers in the ACLU. If they choose not to change and be saved I pray that God will kill them before they drag others into hell with them
