Well.you have to admit the ACLU picks and chooses which right it will defend....
again, would like to hear a specific case.
during the 70's they defended the right of the nazi party to march in illinois. they lost a lot of jewish support for that decision but it was constitutionally correct.

No it doesn't. It picks and chooses who to represent (as does any legal team), but it does not pick and choose rights. Only the Constitution and the courts can determine rights.
What justification do they have for protesting his exercise of his right to free speach? If they had integrity they would be professing their support.
The ACLU is not protesting the pastor's right to free speech - just as they support the right of the pastor to exercise his free speech rights, they support the right of the protesters to protest the pastor's actions.
Sadly, too many people can't understand the difference between supporting the right to an action and supporting the action itself.

Ah, because having the right to protest doesn't mean that someone else doesn't have an equal right to counter your protest?
You'd think this was brain surgery.
