So Downzero,
Your telling me that the ACLU is going all out to PROTECT the free speech of preachers to say "the bible is against Gays" and other so-called Hate speech?
I DONT THINK SO!
Google "ACLU KKK"... here's one such article:
CLEVELAND -- The American Civil Liberties Union today praised the Cleveland Mayor Michael White for his efforts to protect the First Amendment right of marchers scheduled to rally in Cleveland later this month.
The August 21st rally by the Ku Klux Klan has been the source of considerable controversy, with some community leaders critical of the decision to allow the Klan to march at all. Others have criticized the mayor for a decision allowing Klansmen to use a police garage to don their robes and hoods.
Rest at source.
The ACLU defends hate speech all the time. Free speech is one of their "things" (the other being church/state separation).
