Ex-Va. ACLU Head Sentenced For Child Porn

Is this the Liberal's answer to Craig? Guess so.

---Sounds like we're still in the "learning stages" of exactly what "Civil Liberties" we are interested in protecting. I guess this wasn't one of them....

Very interesting that you would 1) mislead the readers by intentionally omitting that the person was a former head, by removing the "ex-VA" you imply that the person is still the head of the ACLU; 2) what is the relevancy of a former anyone to a group? What if Dan Quayle got busted in a mens room soliciting sex, would he then be claimed to represent the current GOP?

Nice attempt, it's entertaining when people omit key details since they think it will "support" their beliefs.

I think there's such a thing as "character", and I'm not sure that this isn't applicable here. Most people wouldn't want to send their fourth-grader to a classroom headed by a "former" child molester---Former or Active, I think most of us would opt for a teacher who is not, and NEVER WAS, a child molester. Character does count for something.

The fact that he is now an ex does not take away from understanding how input fromsome foul person like him influanced the ACLU. It sure helps you understand how the ACLU would come to the defense of NAMBLA.

Do you have a whole list of those whose free speech rights should not be protected and defended, or is it just NAMBLA's?

Speaking of lists, do you have one that sets out 'all the garbage they support'? It would be interesting to learn just how deep your hatred of the First Amendment actually runs...

All the good in the world sometimes can't overcome one bad thing. The (un)aclu wishes this was the case with them...

Yawn. An "Ex" head of a local Chapter of the ACLU busted for child porn? Oh boy! Time to condemn the entire organization he USED to be a part of!

Good thing there aren't examples of religious leaders getting busted for molesting kids, lest good conservatives be forced to condemn religion!... oh wait....
