In the story below it appears that the ACLU is actually performing an act that finds it on the side of being patriotic and defending America for a change. If you know their history, this is a complete accident and circumstantial this time sorry to say, as most of their cases brought lately have put them on the side of america's enemy as many of you are aware.
T-shirts no exception: "Ben Lewandowski says he was only trying to be patriotic when he wore a homemade T-shirt featuring an American flag bumper sticker and the words 'Remember 9/11' to Lincoln Park High School on Monday.
After all, it was Sept. 11 -- five years after the terrorist attacks.
The 17-year-old Lincoln Park resident put the shirt on Monday morning and headed to school -- where he was quickly sent to the office and suspended for three days for violating the school's dress code.
He was one of at least seven students sent home for wearing shirts featuring patriotic images and messages. It comes less than a week after three siblings were suspended for wearing shirts emblazoned with the First Amendment, despite warnings, and a week after more than 200 students were sent home on the first day of school for violating the district's dress code -- which bans apparel with writing or pictures.

ACLU officials have said that they plan to look into the constitutionality of the dress code.Kite said the district had lawyers review the policy before it was enacted. readmore

ACLU Claims Victory: Attorneys Not Required to Sign Terrorism Oath
Today, the Ohio Supreme Court ruled that attorneys seeking to represent indigent clients are no longer required to sign documents swearing that they are not terrorists and have no involvement with terrorist groups. The American Civil Liberties Union of Ohio had challenged the provision, which is part of the Ohio Patriot Act, calling the requirement unnecessary red tape that will do nothing to prevent terrorism. read more at stoptheaclu
