Dover residents who do not believe in democratic forms of government and process asked for ACLU involvement.

Has anybody checked their immigration status?

But that's the problem: We're not a democracy. We're a constitutional republic. In a constitutional republic, the democratically-elected representatives are constrained by the constitution, as applied by the courts. Darn Constitution! Darn judges! Darn law of gravity! Darn law of supply and demand! Darn arthritis... :-)
