small irony: They are helping the Marine who was beaten by Las Vegas police in the airport and broke his ribs. The news reports were that the Marine did not do any thing to warrent such treatment. I can’t think of any big irony.
I meant the overall picture, of the people protesting the ACLU instead of the other way around.
One of the most brilliant techniques used by the ACLU is (on very, very rare occasions) to do a small good deed. This in turn is publicized and used to cover-up the 99.9% of the evil they routinely do.
