Campy Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 You totally missed his point on that one. 345920[/snapback] I wasn't interpretating his post to mean that innocent Ahmed the sheep herder was somehow in touch with American attorneys before he was rounded up for being at the wrong spot at the wrong time.

Campy Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 A nation of laws? That ended about 64 years ago too. 345957[/snapback] And you say I'm grabbing at straws? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tux of Borg Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Maybe he was afraid of being hit with another nerf ball. 345822[/snapback] The nerf football incident made it on to the ACLU website. I also searched the ACLU website for beheadings, but for some reason they don't have anything about it.

Ghost of BiB Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 Whatever. Like I said earlier, you defend their rights and I'll try to keep them from blowing you up. Just an internet tough guy perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Coli Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 The nerf football incident made it on to the ACLU website. I also searched the ACLU website for beheadings, but for some reason they don't have anything about it. http://www.aclu.org/torturefoia/released/030905/ 346020[/snapback] The ACLU is not an international organization. The mission of the ACLU is to preserve all of these protections and guarantees: Your First Amendment rights-freedom of speech, association and assembly. Freedom of the press, and freedom of religion supported by the strict separation of church and state. Your right to equal protection under the law - equal treatment regardless of race, sex, religion or national origin. Your right to due process - fair treatment by the government whenever the loss of your liberty or property is at stake. Your right to privacy - freedom from unwarranted government intrusion into your personal and private affairs. It goes without saying that the beheading of anyone, American or otherwise, is horrible. But the ACLU is only concerned with what happens to people in the hands of Americans. Your beef is with Amnesty International. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crap Throwing Monkey Posted May 27, 2005 Share Posted May 27, 2005 The ACLU is not an international organization. 346043[/snapback] You'd think their being called the American Civil Liberties Union would be the first clue... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eventualchamps Posted June 1, 2005 Share Posted June 1, 2005 Hmmmm.....let me get this right, we can burn the American Flag but we can't flush the Koran down the toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a private citizen...go out, buy yourself a Koran, and get flushing. Have a ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
