“ACLU Website Review”

Anastasia B.
5/15/18

I have the greatest admiration for aclu.org. The website uses strident fact checkers and always publishes factual, substantive information. Every article that I've read is well-sourced, informative and very interesting. This site has some of the best authors I've read anywhere online. The ACLU gives the voiceless voices. Its work is important. Its website is cool and easy to navigate. This website deserves all 5 of the stars that it got.

“Beware of giving them money”

Bryan E.
7/1/20

I gave the aclu a one time donation years ago. I have been hounded ever since with hundreds of letters begging for minimum donations. They are the worst. I have tried to call and email and get off the list, to no avail. I don't believe in their political pandering and some of the "at the moment causes". If you don't want to be harassed on a regular basis don't give them any money and god forbid your contact info.

We have enough homeless in this country that we can't help and you idiots want us to have an open border! Bleeding hearts are burying this country in debt! How can you $#*!s justify letting more than 10 thousand illegals into our country everyday! This isn't the 1900's where people came o er to work,these people coming thru Mexico are here for free housing, food,medical and any thing else they can have handed to them...Nothing but low life's and terrorists and drugs coming and you idiots feel sorry for them! As far as I'm concerned we should put alligators and piranha in the Rio grand and shoot the ones that come out on the U.S.side!

The article the ACLU put out proves one thing. They are useless and should be defunded. If you are going to write an article about mentally ill people, at least try to be truthful. This article about Trans athletes should let everyone know, this organization doesn't care about you. The normal people in this world should not be referred as ' cis'. Wake up people, stop funding this pos.

The ACLU has become infiltrated by delusional trans-extremists who state such nonsense as "transrights are women's rights". No, ACLU, get a clue, transrights are transrights and women's rights are women's rights. My family, who has made large contributions to the ACLU will do so no longer. Disgusted with this joke of an organization, they have become extremists.

I HAVE BEEN SEEING ALOT OF THESE TELEVISION COMMERCIALS. ABOUT $19 DOLLARS A MONTH. STATES AND FEDERAL LEVELS SHOULD DO MORE. TO HELP THIS ORGANIZATION. SO THEY DON'T HAVE TO RESORT TO ASKING FOR MONEY FROM PEOPLE. WE ARE IN TOUGH TIMES WITH INFLATION AND RECESSION.

I sought help from the ACLU regarding my rights inside a nursing home being violated. Not only was the lawyer that I spoke to extremely rude, they care nothing about pursuing justice for the rights of the handicapped, disabled or elderly population.

The ACLU is only interested in cases in which there is a black victim and white perpetrator. They do not seem to see discrimination in any other form. They are so far removed from their original purpose that they really should be classified as an activist organization for black people.

Tip for consumers:
Don’t bother unless your case fits their limited criteria.

Their organization is clearly in the weeds. And they need a new PR team with their latest decisions.

Amidst supporting Amber Heard; the woman who didn't provide the $3.5million donation to them while she had Johnny depps divorce settlement for 13 months. The woman who states she "pledged" the money, after stating on national television it was donated for publicity. The woman who just LOST her defamation case, and was proven to be a domestic abuser, and Johnny Depp be the victim.

They have now turned around and are trying to sue Johnny depp for $86k.

Make an effort to avoid this charity that sues domestic abuse victims. And protects abusers. Find one with integrity.

I requested assistance on a civil rights issue involving the Bill of Rights. I was RUDELY informed that the ACLU only aids on certain issues and do not give any assistance for liberties they don't believe in.

WHAT!?

It's pretty obvious that the ACLU is only interested in certain liberties they wish to protect. This is guided by the elitist few in charge. They claim they support no party, but it's obvious, by their very actions, that they support Socialists, communists, and liberal democrats.
The Constitution of the United States can take a flying leap as far as they are concerned. And if you really believe their pap, I really have to wonder what you're smoking.
Btw, just in case you elitists think I'm some sort of lowlife, I have 3 Bachelor's degrees, 2 Masters and a doctorate. My IQ is over 160 and I'm a member of Mensa.

My first and last review, now i'll be only a reader.

This is the site of The American Civil Liberties Union, "because freedom can't protect itself"

Freedom of speech is protected in the First Amendment of the Bill of Rights and is guaranteed to all Americans.

Freedom of speech is the ability to speak without censorship or limitation. Also called freedom of expression, it refers not only to verbal speech but any act of communicating information or ideas, including publications, broadcasting, art, advertising, film, and the Internet. Freedom of speech and freedom of expression are closely related to the concepts of freedom of thought and conscience.

The right to freedom of speech is recognized as a human right under Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and recognized in international human rights law in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). The ICCPR recognizes the right to freedom of speech as "the right to hold opinions without interference. Everyone shall have the right to freedom of expression." Furthermore freedom of speech is recognized in European, inter-American and African regional human rights law.

This applies to everyone, every website, everywhere... that's beautifull.
