Julie, You sound like you feel that you are a victim of reverse discrimination, and that you are hated for who you are. "When will the HATE STOP?" you ask, and it seems that you are referring to hate towards people like yourself. Perhaps you can tell us more about it so we can understand what you are going through. You ask what the ACLU does. It fights for the protection of civil rights as guaranteed by the constitution. Not everyone agrees with the ACLUs interpretation of the Constitution, so I don't suppose the ACLU wins all its cases. However those cases they do win have the effect of changing how laws are enforced. The ACLU doesn't promote hate. Any hatred you feel around issues they promote comes from somewhere else. Unfortunately our society seems to have become increasingly rude when discussing differences in values and public policy and you may be a victim of that rudeness. What I haven’t heard from either you or EvilEgg, is exactly what rights are being denied to conservative Christians or others who are experiencing reverse discrimination, and what legal basis there may be for enforcing those rights. But maybe you are referring more to attitudes than matters of law. Marcia |
