Wasn’t this organization originally named the American Communist Lawyers Union?
There is something terribly ironic about a guy with the handle “True Patriot” who thinks the idea of defending civil liberties is somehow communistic.
Haha lol!
No. Attend & learn.
..well, they are..
I will be there!
When I tell these people that killing babies is wrong – They say ‘Separation of Church and State’. When they have meetings on how to lobby for everything I believe is wrong – They use a ‘church’ to spread their ‘gospel’ and seem to have no problem with it.
