Generally I agree with the ACLU's actions to support individuals and organizations Constitutional rights. I don't know all the facts about the NAMBLA case, but was told just this morning that NAMBLA presents information on its web site that may not be illegal, but can be reasonably construed as promoting illegal activity (how to keep young kids quiet after molesting them). If that is in fact true, I think the ACLU should reconsider because the first amendment rights do have limits. W.O. Douglas wrote a majority opinion that the first amendment doesn't include the right to shout "fire" in a crowded theater. It shouldn't include telling child molesters how to cover up their work, either.

Sincerely,
