This is the same ACLU that fought on Long Island, Conneticuit and elsewhere for the KKK to hold rallies on public streets. Does the ACLU give added weight to freedom of speech and assembly on public property over freedom of religion on public property?I don't understand your point. The ACLU would be 100% in favor of someone parading back and forth on a public street holding up a sign advocating their religious beliefs, whether standard Catholic, or Jewish, or fundamentalist Christian, or anything else. And I'm not aware of any government in the US prventing that kind of expression. Do you see the police telling the "mitzvah tanks" or the Jews for Jesus or the Falun Gong folks to move on? What they would oppose would be government sponsorship of religious symbols. After all, they would vigorously oppose government sponsorship of the Klan's message. |
