The Commie Lawyers Strike Again

Saw this on Stop The ACLU (Click link for the full article)

Now, on the heels of the stepped up police presence and re-institution of bag searches on New York’s mass transit system, the NYCLU is again filing lawsuits.

On August 3, 2005 the ACLU announced that they were suing the city of New York for violating the civil rights of subway riders by conducting random searches.


Ok, so the reason for the searchs, a tip about a possible terrorist attack in the subways, turned out to be a hoax. But up until the other day no one knew that, so it was a valid concern. If this is still going on today, then I agree with them. the cops are violating people's rights. But what if it had been real. What if they had found a bomb. Personaly, if it means saving hundreds of lives, I have no problem with violating the rights of some people by searching their bags. The ACLU apparently would rather let a bomb onto the subway then inconveniance a few citizens. And people wonder why I don't like them.
