In this instance I was commenting on Australian democracy, not what passes for democracy in the US. Tiger

Now, now. Just because the system itself is failing in almost every way possible doesn't mean that there aren't positive forces trying to counteract this. The ACLU is just one organization here that works towards upholding constitutional rights and rights for minorities.

The ACLU upholds as many rights for minorities as they do for religious institutions and hate speech, however.
