The ACLU is taking away good peoples rights and trying to erase God from all thought? Tell me a good reason why you hate these people and say how you think us TRUE AMERICANS should stop them?

The ACLU should be destroyed. It is out to destroy the United States but unfortunately , our stupid, archaic laws protect it and its un-American members.

People who hate the ACLU are those who really don't believe in civil liberties, and who would make this country more of a dictartorship than what it's already become.\n\nTHE ACLU is needed to protect our liberties.\n\nThe only way to really protect them is to ensure that the liberties and rights of minorities and those with unpopular beliefs are protected. This is what ACLU does, in many cases by defending the rights of those with unpopular views (such as blacks in the 1950's and 1960's in the South, or even Nazis in the 1980's in Chicago, for example).\n\nWe must understand that civil liberties apply to all, not only to people who think like us.

Thats what happens when these "modern" jerk liberals reinvent - reinterpret the Bill of Rights and re-idealize Freedom of Speech and Separation of Church and State (they hide the fact that there is no topic of separation of church and state in the constitution and hope to keep it that way).\n\nThe way the ACLU views it - it is Americans right to freely give out information on building bombs, make home-made weapons and breaking and entering techniques  but you cant defend yourself by using a weapon.   At some point I fully expect the ACLU to start suing citizens for putting up alarms because it offends ex-criminals..... or stereo types against criminals. Sounds too stupid right?  Examples like you covered - proves my point. The ACLU would go to bat for these people posting video on how to break and enter.

You have the right to say whatever you want. Just because the communistic ACLU wants to shut you up, screw them. Like the first guy said, get a LAWYER.

I am solitary for other reason but I did quit going to Open Circle here because of the Christians.  It was so bad that those that hold Open Circle had to get a restraining order against the protesters and move it to somewhere else.  Not only that some of them would follow us home and had a mic hooked up to an external speaker and berate us the whole way, trying to convert us.  Sorry, that's not right.  Even though the courts and laws are against them they keep doing it.  Finally they moved where they hold it onto federal land and that stopped MOST of it but not all.  \n\nBest thing to do is what they did here, use the court system against them and publish the problems.  Newspapers were more than happy to run these stories.  But people, not just the Wiccans/Pagans, need to stand up and say this isn't right and make sure people in their congregations know doing such things isn't acceptable.  But, sadly, that probably won't do any good either.

I took a moment of silence for these brave men and women. I hope every legal American will take a minute this weekend and remember those who gave their life for the past 200-plus years so we can maintain our country's freedom. \n\nNow, honey, you have got to get over this "sale" issue. It is becoming an obsession with you.

The ACLU has defended the constitutional rights of Christians and non-Christians alike. Check out the articles below about how the ACLU went to court to sue for the rights of Christian street preachers.\n\nThe ACLU exists to defend our rights as guaranteed by the Constitution. The reason why there are more non-Christian cases brought to trial than Christian ones is simply because Christians are more frequently guilty of limiting other people's constitutional rights than of having their own limited.\n\nIncidentally, did you get in trouble for wearing a Christian t-shirt, or is this a purely hypothetical question? I'd be very surprised to find a school district where students were not allowed to wear crosses or t-shirts with Christian messages on them. In fact, at my son's high school, they allow freshmen and sophomore students who are not normally allowed to leave campus to have lunch off campus whenever the church across the street sponsors a free lunch in an attempt to convert heathens to their faith. I don't think you'd EVER see the same thing if it were a mosque or temple.

Some are gaining a voice, now that Christianity is under open attack by peoples like the ACLU, and the left under the guise of separation of church and state.   The ACLU know full and well there is no separation of churh n state in the us constitution,  but they ignor that fact.   They know liberal judges bend and stretch the interpretation of the 2nd amendment to fit their own needs,  not the framers intent.   But that neither here nor there.   Christians are beginning to realize if we dont stand up we will lose our rights in the future.   They are being slowly chipped away at,  one right at a time.   Like the girl who graduated top of her class.   She was asked to give a speech explaining what motivated her to achieve excellence.   She gives all credit to God,  and the power to her microphone was cut.   So much for freedom of speech and freedom to worship in america,  right?

Atheist, you in your comment show you are as bad as they are.  They have the right to believe whatever they want and to say whatever they want no matter how hurtful.  Be we have the right to report them for it and not giving them power over us by letting their ignorance hurt us.

Yes, I think it's a big deal, and I am NOT offended to find those words on our coins.  It is one of the very few places that God is still honored in our country.  Should we invalidate the Declaration of Independence, or the Bill of Rights, because they make reference to God?  No!  This country was founded in Christianity, and although I do firmly believe in freedom from religious persecution, I think we've gone way too far on the other side... it is now the Christians who are persecuted, our prayers are not allowed, the very basic principals that this country was founded on are litigated, and all by people claiming to be offended by it... well, you know what?  In many other countries, being the "wrong" religion can get you jailed and executed.  We allow you the God-given right to disagree, but what right do you have to change  who we are?!?!  This country was founded on Christian principals, and you have the right to live here and not be a Christian (although I pray for those lost souls), but that does not mean that you have the right to interfere with my rights, either.  Keep God in all that we do, to honor our forefathers, and honor our FATHER.

Google it... Or, better yet, go to the place the cops hate: The ACLU website. There are plenty of cases of abuse quoted there

well they sued the boy scouts because they had God in their oath, and an atheist sued of behalf of his child and the ACLU was right their, now they can't be on public land any more, boy scouts have to find some where else to go, all because of some dam atheist. San Diego Mt Solidad cross, another atheist wants it down ACLU is right their, they don't pay attention to what the majority of people want, the San Diego case has been going on for 17 years now and no body wants that cross down  but a few atheists same thing with the boy scouts. They also defend deviants, like nambla, who want to make it legal to have sex with children. It's a sick organization. And their going to far.

We are a nation of ethics and moral.... just ask the ACLU. Just don't ask them to defend this country.... they don't have the stomach for it. And please don't waste your time asking Doctors Without Borders, the International Red Cross, Human Rights Watch or the UN Special Council on Human Rights.  Murderers on death row.... sure.... Child molesters.... why not.... terrorist... of course, they deserve a good defense and lots of understanding. But a Soldier... the very person that enforces thier right to defend burners of the Flag of the United States.... they won't even give it a thought. And the funny thing is that US Soldiers are expected to protect these same folks when they travel abroad.\n\nIt is I the Soldier, not the politician, who gave you the right to vote..... it is I the Soldier, not the lawyer, who gave you the right to competant legal representation.... it is I the Soldier, not the pastor, who gave you the right to worship as you see fit.... it is I the Soldier, not the news reporter, who gave you the right to free speech. And it is I the Soldier who will gladly give my life so you can burn the Flag of this great nation in protest, no matter how much I may disagree with you. I give my life defending human rights... I do not recieve the pay, benefits or notoriety of those "other people".... and I may be ridiculed in public because you do not like the politics of the government I have sworn to protect. But without me... you have nothing guaranteed.... you have no legitimate right to anything... But when people with no morals, ethics or scrupples disregard human dignity, we procecute them.... they celebrate them.  So just who is that is being accurately portrayed here.... the vilianous US Military or the cowardly terrorist and insurgents??\n\nBut remember that when my comrades fall, are captured, tortured and mistreated at the hands of those who would see your freedoms and liberty destroyed... I mourn for them. I loose my brother or sister. Thier burden is transfered to me. I am the sworn protector of thier dream, thier honor.\n\nI am the United States Military... there is no other military on this planet that can do what we can.

I hate it. There needs to be a strict separation between church and state. I'm an agnostic and don't feel the need to abide by rules set forth by one group of people telling another group of people how to live their lives.

I think shrty0525 is trying to protest the ACLU for helping picket soldier's funerals. I don't think an e-mail will help because they can filter the e-mails. The best is to have Law Makers passing laws on picketing any service personnel's funeral just out of respect for the family who needs to mourn.
