Judge says, "Put the sex books back on the shelf!"

Lesbian Judge says school board can't remove sexually explicit books

A school board in Colorado cannot remove sexually explicit, profane, and “transgender” books from school libraries because the school board is conservative, according to a federal judge touted as the first openly lesbian judge west of the Mississippi.

The ACLU’s Colorado chapter filed a suit on behalf of two minors, the NAACP Wyoming State Area Conference, and the Authors Guild, claiming that the school district engaged in viewpoint discrimination when removing the books.

The judge granted a preliminary injunction in March, forcing the Elizabeth School District (in Elizabeth, a suburb southeast of Denver) to restore the books.

“The court questions what could be more partisan or political than removing books to further the board’s self-described conservative values” said the first LGBT woman to serve as a federal district judge west of the Mississippi.

The judge never even considered whether the “conservative values” involved protecting children’s innocence or prioritizing reading, writing, and arithmetic over sexual lessons at young ages.

ACLU loses this one

Judge Denies Request to Grant Nearly 2000 South Carolina Voter Registrations to 17-Year-Olds

To date, the DMV has positively identified 1,896 who asked to be registered when applying for driver’s licenses but weren’t added to the rolls.

A judge has denied a request by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of South Carolina to compel South Carolina’s Department of Motor Vehicles (SCDMV) and State Election Commission to reopen voter registration in the state and add thousands of eligible 17-year-olds to the voter rolls ahead of the upcoming presidential election.

The ruling, issued on Oct. 25 by Judge Daniel Coble of the Richland County Court of Common Pleas, was handed down in response to a lawsuit brought by the advocacy group, which sought emergency relief to correct what it argued was a systemic error by the SCDMV that prevented eligible 17-year-olds from being registered to vote.

CNN learns about Kamala Harris' Far-Left Anti-American Policies

CNN stunned to find out how radical Kamala Harris really is

CNN’s Andrew Kaczynski dug up a questionnaire Kamala Harris filled out for the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in 2019 during her failed Presidential campaign.

In that race, Kamala Harris didn’t want to get outflanked to her left.

To prevent that, Kamala Harris took a number of far-left positions on decriminalizing all drugs at the national level, defunding ICE and forcing taxpayers to fund transgender surgeries for illegal aliens.

Kaczynski described just how far-left Kamala Harris was willing to run to win the Democrat Party nomination.

Kaczynski also told CNN viewers that Kamala Harris supported decriminalizing all drugs including crack, fentanyl and heroin.

"F*** Biden signs will remain

ACLU Scores Victory In New Jersey ‘F*** Biden’ Sign Case

Roselle Park has voluntarily dropped its efforts to get two suburban women to remove anti-President Joe Biden signage from their front yard for including expletives, after the New Jersey chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) announced they would represent the pair, NJ.com reported.

Homeowner Patricia Dilascio was ordered by Roselle Park Municipal Court Judge Gary Bundy to take down anti-Biden signs she had put up with her daughter, Andrea Dick, for violating a borough ordinance prohibiting obscenities, according to NJ Advance Media.

The Corrupt Georgia Election

Report Reveals That Georgia Election Officials Hired Thousands Of People With Ties To ACLU And Other Radical Leftist Groups For 2020 Election

Thousands of people in Georgia, who were backed by radical leftist groups like the ACLU and likely supported Black Lives Matter were hired to work in the 2020 presidential election in the state.

“Fulton County was not alone. All told, the ACLU recruited, trained and deployed more than 2,700 election workers at polls across the state on November 3. It also helped recruit “technicians” to help operate and “troubleshoot“ the machines of Dominion Voting Systems. ACLU recruiters targeted younger Georgians for the election work, many of whom had no previous experience checking in voters, and put them through a special training program separate from the county’s,” the Georgia Star said in their report on the story.

Catch & Release Revived

Franklin County MA shuts ICE detention center

Says closure was a financial, not a political, decision

Costs in FY19 were anticipated to be $124 per individual/per day for those in adult detention and $319 per individual/per day for those in family detention.

The American Civil Liberties Union called on the Biden administration to shut down 39 ICE detention facilities nationwide, including the facility in Bristol County Massachusetts run by Sheriff Thomas Hodgson, a strong supporter of former president Trump and his immigration policies.

"The number of detained people is currently lower than it’s been in two decades,” said Naureen Shah, senior advocacy and policy counsel at the ACLU.

Blasey-Ford gets a "Courage" Award

It just keeps getting crazier and crazier.

Kavanaugh Accuser Christine Blasey Ford Wins ACLU 'Courage' Award

So you have the evil communist left-wing political organization, the ACLU, giving an award to a woman who tried desperately to take down a Supreme Court Nominee, Bret Kavanaugh. At the time, Ford’s story lacked any corroborating details — not even a solid where and when of the alleged assault were ever established. She had no direct eyewitnesses — and witnesses she did name turned out not to back her up. And this all took place in California, the screwiest state in the country.

ACLU thinks Illegals have Rights

ACLU Sues Trump to Halt Accelerated Deportations

The ACLU has filed a suit in federal court in order to force the president to stop the practice. Expedited deportation is for illegals who are in the country for less than two years and have no valid asylum claim and in some cases have never applied for asylum.

Florida Sanctuary Policy is upsetting Far Left Groups

The ACLU is becoming a "hate" group--they certainly are left of left and the guardian of far-left progressive agendas.

The American Civil Liberties Union and other civil rights organizations issued a travel advisory for Florida on Monday, warning that immigrants could have their constitutional rights violated by legislation the state is considering.

"BREAKING: We and partners have issued a travel advisory urging immigrants and people of color to use extreme caution when traveling in Florida. The state is on the verge of passing a draconian anti-immigrant bill which will endanger our communities," the ACLU tweeted.

Florida's Senate Bill 168 and House Bill 527 that has to do with Sanctuary City Law has brought on their ire.

Muslim woman gets her suit dismissed

Case dismissed involving Muslim woman forced to remove hijab

I love these people trying to do whatever they please and refusing to follow the laws of the United States.

Muslim Suha Elqutt filed suit but she failed to establish there was any violation of her constitutional rights. In this case, it was a manufactured incident as she did not wear a hijab going through security 8 times in 5 months before this incident. Who was behind this insurrection?

Do law-abiding citizens of this country have to pick up the tab just to have frivolous lawsuits heard in court? The Court made the right decision by dismissing this lawsuit. The ACLU and CAIR are having a fit.

California to enact legislation when police can open fire

Several lawmakers and the family of a 22-year-old unarmed black man who was fatally shot by police proposed Tuesday that California become the first state to significantly restrict when officers can open fire. The legislation would change the standard from using "reasonable force" to "necessary force."

That means officers would be allowed to shoot only if "there were no other reasonable alternatives to the use of deadly force" to prevent imminent serious injury or death, said Lizzie Buchen, legislative advocate for the American Civil Liberties Union, which is among the groups behind the measure.

On the right to Free Speech

“When you work for the private sector and your employer is not the government, the Constitution gives you zero protection in terms of keeping your job based on what you say.

By the time I get to Phoenix

Closed-door meeting with 'antifa' birthed surprise sanctuary city

The open-borders crowd wasted no time making inroads into this traditionally conservative area following their victory in November's election.

But they weren't very open or transparent about it. A lot of long-time residents may not even know their city is now a sanctuary for illegal-alien criminals.

And why should they? City officials and the chief of police made sure their meeting with this clenched-fist, anti-Trump "resistance" group wasn't public ...

Immigration and Civil Liberties

[Palm Beach Post] LAKE WORTH — Since President Donald Trump was elected, the immigration issue has been in the news frequently, making Palm Beach State College’s upcoming discussion more timely than ever.

On Thursday, the college is scheduled to host “Immigration & Civil Liberties in a New Era” on the campus west of Lake Worth,  4200 S. Congress Ave.

There will be three speakers:  Nancy Abudu, director of legal operations at the Florida American Civil Liberties Union; John DeLeon, attorney and past president of the Miami-Dade ACLU and Wilfredo Ruiz, communications director at the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

The discussion starts at 6 p.m. and will be held at the Public Safety Building, room 108.


Now check out who is speaking to our young kids? Liberals with an agenda. There will be no fair and balanced views and that's the problem in our colleges and universities today. They are all getting brainwashed by leftest and dangerous ideology.

Take C.A.I.R.--

Democrats Grandstand and Lose

Comment Up

The Democrats are conceding that Barack Obama's policies have failed and the terrorists have won. By their own standard from the Bush era, they now want to curtail our constitutional rights because they are scared and admit neither their President nor their good Uncle Sam can keep them safe. But they'll be damned if you are allowed to keep yourself safe.

Even the ACLU is against the Democrats.

ACLU boss quits

Comment Up
Cartoon by A.F. Branco

Maya Dillard Smith, the now former Georgia ACLU Chief said the ACLU is no longer an organization that supports all rights, but has evolved into a “special interest organization” that advocates only for “certain progressive rights.”

Smith also charged that the ACLU tailors its activities to satisfy the progressives who are funding the group’s lobbying activities one of which is Obama's transgender bathroom rights. A transgender called her a B*itch and told her to STFU.  We usually hear that sort of rhetoric from "progressives."

Anarchists make his head explode

Comment Up


The latest edition of The Lake Worth Herald is hot off the press...

In it, the editor's brain appears to be the only thing on fire. He is finding fault with the ACLU lawyer who was present at the last city commission meeting who was there reminding the commission of rights of the homeless. The editor has found fault with the homeless and their advocates who remained seated during the invocation and the Pledge to the Flag and on shhhhhh, anarchists. From his editorial one can gather that he and his fantastical political friends believe the anarchists are behind the homeless invasion and fear anarchists to a point of absurdity—some excerpts:

“The real crux is not the homelessness; that’s just an anarchists way of kicking down the door.”

The next outlandish statements were—

Lake Worth has an election coming up and these people will use every opportunity to twist and create falsehoods to sway the vote of Lake Worth Citizens who just want to live their life in Lake Worth. Sitting commissioners, Ryan Maier and Christopher Mcvoy APPEAR to be sympathetic to the anarchists [using the word "appear" gets him off the hook of a lawsuit] and if they get another sympathetic commissioner [sympathetic to what?] in the next election, anarchy could rule Lake Worth.

Think of a Lake Worth with no street lights, completely dark at night.That is the atmosphere they desire. [I believe that this statement is libelous but if not that, OUTRAGEOUS].

Think parks and city streets where it is completely unsafe to visit. A city where going out of your home is extremely dangerous. A Lake Worth the majority of citizens don’t want to see. [Again, SILLY]

Ok, come on, paint graffiti on our building again. [And then after insult after insult, he taunts them to commit vandalism--just more SILLY STUFF]

Please let me remind all of you that 1) Maier and McVoy did not agree or disagree with the homeless or take any stand of any kind, nor did Cara Jennings.  Cara Jennings was there to talk about the Siemens contract, not the homeless. 2) This problem has existed for years and this commission has been in power for years now with the problem  getting worse along with the panhandling. 3) The person that Easton is so scared of owns her own home, she is not homeless, and she was an elected commissioner for two terms. She did not create the homeless situation.

I just wish that our commissioners McVoy and Maier could sue for this defamation.  But it's opinion, and you can get away with just about any lie, twisted as it may be, without  repercussion if you are clever enough.  However, the voters are smarter than some politicos believe even the local press. All the lies didn't win it for them this past March and all their ranting now and silly comments about anarchists won't help them in the future.

If anything is to be learned from our past election, besides having an honest message, it is to honor the people you serve. People before Politics as Ryan Maier said.

ACLU wins; Rick Scott loses

The ACLU is always looking out for the civil rights of all Americans, good, bad or in between. I don't always agree with them. The organization stepped into the fight against drug testing for all those who were enrolled in the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families program to submit urine samples to prove they weren't on drugs. The ACLU sued and won in a federal court.

The State of Florida appealed the decision and just lost the appeal.  The 11th Circuit Court said that it was unconstitutional to make those on welfare take drug tests saying it violates the Fourth Amendment.

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
