why is ACLU hated among most Americans?

Posted on 12/04/2005 6:22:13 AM PST by Khashayar

It has been my question since I became a member on FR.

Why do conservatives in the US hate/disagree with/dislike the ACLU

Are they not a group to protect civil liberties of the American society?

I mean the very values that America's founding fathers dreamed of.

Any how, it is amazing for me why most people in the states disagree with whatever ACLU does.

Thanks for attention!

No. They are a communist front organization dedicated to the destruction of the Constitution of the United States under the guise of "protecting" it. The only "liberties" they "protect" are those that foster the socialist agenda.

Although this is supposed to be the reason for their existence, they have morphed into a socialist organization that is determined to eradicate Christianity, IMO.

So, my answer would be no.

The problem is that you are believing the four words in their name and not noticing what they do.

I made the same mistake many years ago. I thought that they were for individual rights, but they aren't. They follow an anti-Christian and anti-American agenda and litigate against family values, property rights, Christianity, Contitutional gurantees and freedom.

Look no further then to just who founded this so called civil rights group. They do not work for the preservation of our rights. They work for the destruction of our values and culture.

The ACLU is infiltrated by a bunch of marxists who wish to use our own legal system against American values to create their utopian dream world.

ACLU To Represent NAMBLA

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/aponline/20000831/aponline171914_000.htm

BOSTON –– Saying important First Amendment issues are at stake, the American Civil Liberties Union is stepping in to defend a group that advocates sex between men and boys against a lawsuit brought by the family of a murdered 10-year-old.

Wasn't one of the ACLU founders quoted as saying that: "Communism is the goal".

While I can't believe that this deserves an answer, it is simply that the ACLU is very selective in its approach. The so-called liberties they protect are usually perversions, while trampling on American values isn't worthy of their attention. The ACLU will jump to defend a pervent before challenging the removal of a nativity scene from public property. The ACLU will take up a causelike Rush Limbaugh's to offset the claim that they are uneven in their approach. Let's search the legal databases to see what good the ACLU has brought about.

maybe because they are a bunch of communists and traitors hell bent on using our freedoms against us to the benefit of our enemies. The ACLU is just a bunch of isloamofacists in suits and should be treated that way.

This is the group who is bent on destroying the Boy Scouts of America while at the same time uses it's funds to defend NAMBLA. Use a search engine and enter "aclu" and "sucks". You'll find a wealth of information.

The founder of the ACLU, Roger Baldwin, was an avowed communist.

In an article written for Soviet Russia Today (September 1934), Roger Baldwin said: "When the power of the working class is once achieved, as it has been only in the Soviet Union, I am for maintaining it by any means whatsoever."

Another attributed quote:

Entry of Roger Baldwin in the Harvard reunion book on the occasion of the 30th anniversary reunion of his class of 1905 (1935), "I seek social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class, and sole control of those who produced the wealth: communism is the goal."

Because they defend the "rights" of pedophiles, terrorists and the like. They are anti-America and if you have a search engine type in their name and bring up their latest legal fights. You will find they are defending every pervert out there PLUS the rights of Christian-hating atheists'
