As usual, the ACLU stands up for EVERYBODY'S civil rights, unlike just about every other group.

...the possession of weapons by individuals is not constitutionally protected.
The question therefore is not whether to restrict arms ownership, but how much to restrict it. If that is a question left open by the Constitution, then it is a question for Congress to decide.
The idea that this is somehow an indefensible point of view for me to hold strikes me as bizarre.
The ACLU works in the courts, legislatures and communities to defend and preserve the individual rights and liberties guaranteed to all people in this country by the Constitution and laws of the United States.
The national ACLU is neutral on the issue of gun control.

Except for lawful police and military purposes, the possession of weapons by individuals is not constitutionally protected.
How do you figure?(Mpayne will hate this line) GOD BLESS RUSH LIMBAUGH
Your lack of logic is disturbing.If this is neutrality, I'd rather have an outright enemy.

Whatever.
The ACLU doesn't litigate RKBA cases on either side. That is neutrality.
The fact of the matter is that the ACLU doesn't want to get involved in that fight and alienate one side or the other.
The ACLU's position on the second amendment is the exact same position that the U.S. Supreme Court (of which a majority are Republican appointed) and most of the other courts in the nation hold.

Perhaps you missed the word when it was passed; but the "tell-all" book that was written about Bush's "coke habit", and its author, were so roundly discredited that the publisher recalled all unsold copies and took them to the dump.Bush: drunk driving and a coke habit in his past, but now he's also a righteous drug warrior.

Was that true when they last ruled 70 years ago? or are you talking about the SC now, which is irrelivent.(of which a majority are Republican appointed)
It was true 70 years ago (Remember FDR was elected after about 30 years of mostly Republican Presidents), and is true now.Was that true when they last ruled 70 years ago? or are you talking about the SC now, which is irrelivent.
So in your world, all denials are admissions, and probability is actuality. Supposition and conjecture are all that are needed for a conviction.For someone who you say never used cocaine, he sure is evasive about it. Also, from what I have read he probably deserted the Texas National Guard to go snort the stuff.
