Answer 1

The mission of the ACLU is to preserve all of these protections and guarantees:

    * Your First Amendment rights - freedom of speech, association and assembly; freedom of the press, and freedom of religion.

    * Your right to equal protection under the law - equal treatment regardless of race, s*x, religion or national origin.

    * Your right to due process - fair treatment by the government whenever the loss of your liberty or property is at stake.

    * Your right to privacy - freedom from unwarranted government intrusion into your personal and private affairs.

So, they would step in if any laws were broken that went along the lines of their mission.

Answer 7

The ACLU doesn't have any interest in helping the homeless people.  The ACLU is only in the business of telling others that they are responsible for helping them.

Answer 8

When a political party chooses a venue for their convention they should have to take it "as is." No relocation of "undesirables", no out of the ordinary sprucing up the city, etc. And by the way, if the Dems are so concerned about the economically downtrodden and about global warming, why are they spending millions on the convention itself, and not giving the money to the homeless, and why are all the delegates traveling great distances by fossil fuel burning conveyances to attend the convention?

Can you say hypocrite?
