Leftist ACLU wackos at it AGAIN

[Pei]

They haven't discarded the 2nd ammendment: they interpret it in a different way to the NRA.

[FUNKED1]

LOL "interpret in a different way".

ALCU = Left Wing Hypocrites

[midnight Target]

The 2nd is the most poorly written "right" there is. Why do you think our founding fathers left it so stinking ambiguous.

It may seem that way, since many of their recent high-profile cases are against right-wing government officials who insist on trying to make Christianity the official USA religion.

the 2nd seems quite clear to me.... "shall not be infringed"  seems clear as a bell.  "people" seems pretty clear too.   Only someone who didn't understand that a blowjob was sex would have trouble understaning it.

Of course, reviewing their case histories wouldn't yield what you would want to see.

Ah friend Rude, the ACLU hasn't changed, you have changed.  Most of us do as we age.

The ACLU is doing what it has always done: Insisting on extending the rights & responsibilities of the US Constitution to all citizens.

Sorry Curly, your wrong here.  Same with the Democratic party.  I would have been a Democrat in the 1950's (Had I been alive).  The party changed. So did the ACLU.

To be fair, the Republican party is changing before my eyes too. The spending (non-Security, non-Tax relief spending) is outta control.

Unfortunately saying someone changed doesn't prove they did, nor does it come close to proving that somone else did... silly logic Rip, try again.

Midnight, I have met sooooo many republicans, older folks, that say they USED to be a democrat. If you don't think the party has changed since the 50's, then maybe you have sand in your ears?

seems clear enough to me...  Are you saying that a well regulated militia is not necessary to the security of a free stare or that.... you don't understand the words... The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed?

or... are you saying that .... one part dictates the other?    That if we never need a well regulated milita ever in our future then it's ok to infringe on the RIGHT of the people to KEEP AND BEAR ARMS?

guess it depends on your defenition of what the word "is"... is

Sorry, I'm not.  Give me one example of a case supported by the ACLU which isn't supportive of the constitution.

When the ACLU became political, I began to depise them, as I did with the NRA.  Both should be neutral in politics.

Rip, you're a victim of your own senility.  I've noticed the following in my work group peers.  As we aged, most would complain about young men and women changing when in fact, it was my co-workers who were changing: They were growing old, less flexible in their thinking and more anxious to protect what they had.

Young folks haven't changed one bit.  Now, their opportunities for mischief, yeah, that has changed!

I remember drinking too much one time as a teenager and driving a bit recklessly.  The police stopped me, took away my keys and made me walk home.   Does that happen today?  Lol, not often.

What's changed?  The kids?  Nope; society has grown older and less flexible in how they deal with young people.

So nope, Rip, I doubt you would note the changing face of the republican party.

Rip, you do know the definition of a conservative, right?  A conservative is a liberal who was mugged last night.
