The final question remains:
How do you regain freedoms
once they are lost?
~

Answer 1

Eliminate the ACLU! THEY SUCK!

Answer 2

Excuse me, Larry, your little stories are cute but they show you have NO CLUE what the ACLU really does. NO CLUE. Johnny's dad was put on the terror watch list because of the ACLU?? Larry, trust me, I'm sure you're a cool guy but regarding the ACLU, you have NO CLUE. What other changes in American life would you like to blame on them--the price of gas has gone up a lot, and many of our manufacturing jobs have gone to China---don't you want to blame that on ACLU, Larry? (by the way, the ACLU was founded in 1920, not 1973). Larry, you should stick to posting about things you are capable of understanding, such as, um, well, ...

Answer 3

The ACLU has nothing to do with a school going into lockdown for a gun on campus.

Nor with a school's policy to call police over a fight.

Nor with the alarming tendency to drug children with behavioral problems.

Nor with appropriate laws regarding child abuse.

Nor with a school's drug policy.

Nor with Homeland Security rules (other than probably defending the father against the charges).

Nor with sexual predator laws (other than probably defending the teacher)

If you can show me anything to the contrary, I'd be happy to see it.

Answer 4

That was too Funny!
We would be SO much better off without the ACLU and the idiots who support and fund them. As to your last question, educate the populous let them know what their rights are, make them aware of what is happening right in front of their eyes. If after a generation that doesn't work. break out the rifles and do it the old fashioned way..

Answer 5

The ACLU is interested in defending all the freedoms guaranteed under the constitution - including those related to second amendment rights. So if you are worried about keeping your freedoms, send them some money!

Answer 6

first of all, that's an incredible start up. 2nd, i think of they could desire to characteristic a penalty for all of us who gets a renter's enable for an unlawful to apply and clean up that difficulty in the previous it unavoidably starts off. third, i think of that the landlords are going to respire a sigh of alleviation by using fact now they hit upon a thank you to tell those human beings "no." what number do you think of have been compelled to hire to those illegals interior the 1st place? i'm particular particularly some them have yet now they do no longer could desire to.

Answer 7

depends on the situation. they have made strides in fighting for the rights of the wrongly accused, and they keep those who are power-hungry in-check (hello, GOP).
