Every post has someone making personal insults. Blows my mind.

A> I think it's ok for the Minutemen to patrol the borders. The ACLU shouldn't get in the way.
B> Some of these people could be extremely racist and using this as an excuse to hurt Mexicans.
A> They still have a right to patrol the border as long as they don't overstep their bounds.
B> Agreed, but the ACLU will be there to insure that doesn't happen.
A> In that case I guess I don't mind the ACLU being involved.

Alot nicer than bringing up non sequiturs and calling people names.

Hmm, I'm fairly sure I didn't engage in any name calling. And I am also fairly sure I brought up the exact argument you just claimed was a lot nicer alternative. Instead of complaining about name-calling (which certainly won't stop it), you COULD just reply to the decent posts instead.

I think everyone is getting worked up for nothing, there hasn't been any evidence displayed that what the ACLU doing is wrong by any means...

It depends on what you mean by "wrong". As in many situations involving the ACLU, their critics are complaining that they are doing ANYTHING to monitor, restrict, question, or otherwise limit the actions of a group of people who claim to be defending the US from some bad thing. In other words, it makes no difference WHAT the ACLU is doing on the border, the fact that they feel the need to be involved at all is offensive to certain people.

The illegals are not citizens of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA. What planet are you from? Get a life. You would be an excellent cabinet member of the mcowen administration.
