The ACLU: Fighting For Your Rights

One of the longstanding illusions about the ACLU is that they are merely the dogged defenders of the crucial civil rights of everyone, regardless of political persuasion. A look through their cases, however, shows this to be far from true. In reality, the ACLU pushes a kook-left agenda, and it manages to find the wrong side of almost any issue, which it then imposes on all of America via the runaway courts.

So while you're under the impression that the ACLU is actually out fighting the Joseph McCarthys of the world and upholding the Bill of Rights as the founders intended it, they're actually doing stuff like this:

A male high school student can wear a skirt to school after the American Civil Liberties Union reached an agreement with school officials.

The ACLU announced the deal Tuesday. It will allow a Hasbrouck Heights [N.J.] School senior to wear a skirt to protest the school's no-shorts policy.

The district's dress code bans shorts between Oct. 1 and April 15, but allows skirts, a policy 17-year-old Michael Coviello believes is discriminatory.

"I'm happy to be able to wear skirts again to bring attention to the fact that the ban on shorts doesn't make sense," Coviello said in a statement.

We can all now sleep the secure sleep of the constitutionally protected, knowing that this school district's unconscionable human rights travesty has ended and justice and humanity have been restored by the brave souls at the ACLU.

The only solace I find is in the hope this little putz will likely be beaten senseless and left for dead by his schoolmates. Go football team!
