ACLU Backs Gay Sex in Public Toilets under "Privacy" Provisions

I didn’t think you were defending it, I was just pointing out a very probable scenario.

[Gator113]

“What two consenting adults do in the privacy of a restroom stall is.......”

Nothing but a bunch of sick freaks.

[o_zarkman44]

Who said you can’t get VD from a toilet seat??

This is disgusting.

"[Anthony] Romero is the ACLU's sixth executive director, and the first Latino and openly gay man to serve in that capacity."

A rat smells its own hole.

[HANG THE EXPENSE]

It would seem that the aclu has been infected with butt flu.And all this time I thought it was liberalism.

[Clemenza]

(Cue cheesy techno music).

[TruthWillWin]

When you are a Republican and the ACLU is trying to help you it is time to step down.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

I have to check my files but I remember Romero as supporting various communist fronts and united fronts for many years.

I suspect that he has been in lawsuits with the marxist-created Center for Constitutional Rights, the National Lawyers Guild, and related leftist legal entities, as well as supporting the united anti-Iraq fronts of the WWP/ANSWER/IAC, and United for Peace & Justice. (Some lists of sponsors of these groups have removed from their websites. Wonder why?)

I’ll see what I can find.

[popdonnelly]

Go get a room!

People should not be solicited for homosexual sex in a public facility.

[BlueNgold]

OMFG!

[billmor]

How about if somebody starts a lawsuit to allow sex on the desks at the ACLU offices?... /s

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

“Solicitation for private sex is protected speech under the First Amendment, the ACLU argues.”

Let’s examine this a little closer.

Soliciting sex is often called “prostitution” if money is exchanged.

“Protected speech”? Something else should be protected.

How can you have “protected speech” if your mouth is full? Not saying anything, are you? Therefore, no “speech”, protected or unprotected.

Isn’t this the best way to spread veneral disease? Thus the ACLU is promoting unsafe and dangerous sexual practices that pose a danger to the public. Therefore they are “aiding and abetting” criminal behavior and dangerous health behavior.

Somebody call the CDC on these leftist a*holes. Oh, I forgot, that is what the ACLU is protecting.

At least fifteen years or so. It's very difficult to view the ACLU as an objective Constititional rights-based organization when they continue to hire CPUSA chairman types.

This isn't the 1950s anymore, i.e., a global war between capitalist and Communist ideologies, so what's with all of the Communist affiliations?

You and I both know the answer. Lenin made it quite clear. These are his surrogate children and grandchildren, if you will.

Soliciting sex is often called “prostitution” if money is exchanged.

And the difference is in the 'if.'

Isn’t this the best way to spread veneral disease? Thus the ACLU is promoting unsafe and dangerous sexual practices that pose a danger to the public. Therefore they are “aiding and abetting” criminal behavior and dangerous health behavior.

Knowing the ACLU, disease-as-speech may be considered defensible. Who are you to restrict just how one expresses their viruses?

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Re the “if”. No one knows what goes on “behind closed doors” (sorry, Charlie Pride).

Some of these chickenhawks ain’t out there doing this for pleasure.

I have nothing against viruses except, like communists and Islamofascist, they can kill you.

Besides, all that, you have no idea what is on that toilet seat. As my granddaughter would say, it’s “disgusting, yukey, nasty.”

I guess the ACLU’s theme is “I’ll protect your rights to bend over, anywhere, anytime, with anyone.”

[Das Outsider]

Re the “if”. No one knows what goes on “behind closed doors” (sorry, Charlie Pride).

However, law enforcement does. The offer of exchanging money for sexual acts is the clincher in prostitution stings. Mere soliciation without an offer of an exchange of money for services leaves one with the burden of having to resort to legal violations regarding lewd and lascivious conduct, provided the said conduct is witnessed. Ask George Michael.

While I completely disagree that this solicitation and engaging in sex in a public toilet is protected speech, this statement bothers me:

"We saw a lot of communication about this particular bathroom on Web sites, and if we make it known that we're aware of it we can't be expected to enforce the law as effectively."

Is the goal to "enforce the law", or end the conduct? This statement makes it sound like the preferred outcome for the LE community is an arrest rather than a voluntary choice to not engage in disgusting behavior. I guess the argument is that if they somehow got the word out that this place was under surveillance, the pervs would just go elsewhere. But that is what happens anyway after arrests are made.

Well, gollllleeee, Sargeant Carter! Isn’t that just great?

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

I love it when you talk “legal”.

I’m a paralegal in one of my incarnations. The govt actually calls me a “historian” but I’m still a research paralegal at heart (environmental CERCLA cases). But no “cite checking” for me.

I'm just an amateur researcher my friend, but I think I can sympathize. ;)
