I have not kept complete track of the flurry of suits that have been filled in
the last week. Has the ACLU take sides in any other them?

Subject: ACLU is still anti-Second Amendment
Updated today, from their website (aclu.org).
[quote]Heller Decision and the Second Amendment
So, we’ve been getting a lot of comments about the ACLU’s stance on the
Second Amendment. For those of you who didn’t catch our response in the blog
comments, here it is again:
The ACLU interprets the Second Amendment as a collective right. Therefore, we
disagree with the Supreme Court’s decision in D.C. v. Heller. While the
decision is a significant and historic reinterpretation of the right to keep
and bear arms, the decision leaves many important questions unanswered that
will have to be resolved in future litigation, including what regulations are
permissible, and which weapons are embraced by the Second Amendment right that
the Court has now recognized.[/quote]
