The Institute for Justice that provided the legal counsel for the plaintiffs in Kelo vs. New London states that although local ACLU chapters have occasionally provided amicus curiae briefs in other disputes, the national ACLU did not sign on in Kelo because they have not yet developed a policy on it. You have to reread that. They have not developed a policy on it yet.
Property rights, a cornerstone of personal liberty and ACLU has not developed a
policy on it yet. Property rights are enshrined in the Fifth Amendment and
throughout the Constitution and ACLU has nto developed a policy on it yet.
Yet, let some malcontent pervert or drug addict take offense at being
excluded from some program because of AIDS, or some welfare cheat have his
dole reduced, or some atheist find fault with a display of The Ten Commandments
and ACLU is right there to make a civil rights issue of it.
And don’t forget ACLU’s official position on gun control, another right
explicitly enshrined in an amendment and ACLU takes the side of
government. ACLU will only take positions that destabilize our government
or insult our people’s values.
This should tell every libertarian the true nature of ACLU. Its goals are communist today just as they were at the organization’s founding. True libertarians are unanimous in the beliefs that the Second and Fifth
Amendments are crucial for a free society. The conclusions are undeniable. Once
again, the challenge for Ken Hurley or any member of ACLU to prove
otherwise.
