ACLU Savors Latest Victory

#12  Yes, that is conspiracy, but it would have to be proven. The person would have to wear a wire and have an approval of a judge to do so, to even have a chance.

#11  I also have to wonder how many times an ACLU attorney has advised someone to commit an act that's against the law in the belief they can use the case to further their agenda.

Wouldn't that count as conspiracy?

#10  RICO statutes. I agree. Violence against them would only get them unneeded sympathy.

#9  From a lawyer perspective you are forgetting the purpose of the ACLU.
The ACLU exist to create that BIG CASE that can make a lawyer's name. Once he/she has the NAME they can command BIG FEEs.

Its a MEAL TICKET!

#8  Robert, I agree on RICO. Also, acts of sedition come to mind.

We need someone with sufficient prominence to take on and diminish the ACLU.

#7  I just hope and pray that not one American or Iraqi dies because of some Al-Queda idiot decides to explode himself at a checkpoint over these photos. And if anyone is then the blame should be laid at the ACLUs doorstep.

#6  This is utter bullshit! Does the ACLU demand that kiddy-porn be released in those cases because the public has a right to know? And you know why they don’t release those pictures? Because if they did, parents would storm the jail house and lynch every pedophiles that was caught. I saw a LLL woman on with tucker Carlson (can’t recall name) and she stated that they (the LLL) were disappointed that Dick Cheney never was indicted for the Abu Gharib case and hopefully yhese photos will do the trick. No if that doesn’t bring the left position into clarity I don’t know what will. They want to ‘get’ anyone in the Bush administration and if that hurts the U.S. in the process then that’s ok with them. I guess the Judge is of the same mindset or he would understand that releasing will not add a single conviction to the case but inflame the Arab/Muslim at a critical time in Iraq. Good show ACLU please take your place in Hell. I hope some lawyers sue the ACLU when someone gets killed in the ensuing riots after these pictures/videos are released.

I understand and apologize.

#4  Violence isn't the answer. RICO is.

#3  Note from the moderator: stop this right now.

We do NOT advocate killing American citizens on this blog. That's called, 'murder', and we don't do that.

We may not like the ACLU, but the proper response is to stand against them in court and in public debate.

I will delete any further references to killing ACLU lawyers, and if necessary dump them into the sinktrap.

AoS

#2  I've often wondered what effect the killing of one or two ACLU attorney's would have on the rest of the organization. Would they rally and come out fighting - or would they go underground and hide until things cooled off.

I also think that sometimes - some people need to be reminded that political power comes from the barrel of a gun.
