Walty – If you are trying to make the argument that the ACLU is not a far left wing organization you are kidding yourself.

Wasnt really arguing anything.  Just pointing out that quoting Jerry Falwell about anything is just insane (in my opinion anyway).  And saying the ACLU is _______ without examples of why doesn't really work for me.  I dont even necessarily support the ACLU, just curious why everybody else is so damn angry at the thought of it.

Why is it far left?  Far left compared to what?  Just looking for an actual response with substance here.

Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

It takes about 2 minutes and a google search, I don't really care if you do it or not but your not going to double dare me into showing you a thousand examples of the history of the ACLU.

Google searched…"why do some people on the FAU message board find the ACLU to be far left".  I got nothing.

Quadruple dog dare you.

It is extremely difficult to resist a quadruple dog dare but how about this, just take "on the FAU message board" out of your search and I believe your search will give you what your looking for.  ;)

Well I'm sorry I started this thread, but I was hoping to show Walty12 the ACLU has the freedom to say these things because of people like me and my fellow service members.

I appreciate your service but I take issue with this statement. The assault on American rights and liberties have come from our politicians (on both sides) and not some invading force. Our rights have been slowly taken away in the name of freedom over the last 20 years by our government and the UN, NOT Iraq, Iran, NK, or whoever we have cast as the boogie man in that moment.

While the ACLU may be unsavory in some of the cases they take up, people today just do not have the will to speak up for unpopular causes.

Finally, after reading the Sun Sentinel article, it is a bit suspect that those students are being investigated.

I also take issue with the statement for a different reason but I don't think USMCOWL should apologize for starting the thread. Message boards are for sharing information (both good and bad) and airing your grievances. We're not always going to get along or agree on everything - especially when a third of these threads turn religious or political - but at the end of the day we're all going to come back because this is the home for all things FAU. As diehard fans, or even as casual fans, this is where we belong.
