Ah, the ACLU, the best act in town.
This *wonderful* organization dedicated to creating hilarious acts of
social sarcasm (I mean really... THEM? Fighting for civil liberties?
Hah!) has been traipsing their troupe of lawyers around the state.
They've come to this wonderful state, what I like to call "the buckle
of the Bible belt", to fight against prayer in public schools. I mean
really, what could be funnier than that?
The Lord knows we need to be protected from our own religious beliefs.
After all, my belief in God is like implying that the guy next to me is
wrong! What kind of institution would allow someone to say that the
next guy is wrong in his beliefs? Would allow people to display any
belief that could cause discomfort to another? Would allow people to
express any belief at all that was controversial?
Actually I should apologize for that last comment. Or rather, it was a
joke. That seems to explain everything these days. The truth is that
way-left organizations do fight for beliefs that deny those of others
and are discomforting or controversial. Evolution, abortion, heck bring
out the whole laundry list.
The truth lies within one of their better comedies: "Pro-Choice".
Apparently that summarizes down to "We approve of you doing anything we
choose for you to do." Getting an abortion makes a couple brave,
progressive, and noble, but getting a handgun for self defence paints
you as a bottomfeeder. Don't try to express this way of thinking in
geometric terms; you'll strain your brain trying to visualize any
one-dimensional object.
What else can you call the actions of the ACLU in this state but
intolerant? What could drive an organization to spend the effort they
do other than a hatred of that with which they disagree?
