Sorry if this seems US-centric. You are invited to adapt to whatever entity correlates where you are.
But is the ACLU good for America? Why/why not? Interested in knowing from those of all political persuasions.
I think it is.
Getting Americans interested in human rights would be a great idea for the rest of the world.

Originally posted by JS357I don't always agree with the ACLU, but I think it's nice that someone is serving as a watchdog on potential human rights violations. We can always just ignore them when they're wrong (as they often are), but in most cases, a civilian check against the power of the state is a good thing.
