The Role of the American Civil Liberties Union in Public Policy

The author expresses a negative opinion about the American Civil Liberties Union, disagreeing with their stance on drug legalization, metal detectors in airports, the pledge of allegiance, and the death penalty. They believe that the Supreme Court should interpret the Constitution, not create new rights, and that most public policy issues should be resolved by elected legislatures. They also criticize the ACLU for claiming laws are unconstitutional when they are not. The author appreciates the reader's views and offers assistance in the future.
