Latest ACLU funny

Mahalo and stay secret!

Coming from one of "those people" I think that this is all nonsense.
This particlular case from the ACLU is a joke.

If my child was to open a stall door where 2 women were "getting it on" the ACLU would side with the 2 women?

How is sex in public not already legally defined by indecency or exposure laws?

I don't care what the combo of people is - 2 men, 2 women, 1 man & 1 woman - they shouldn't be having sex in a public place. Public bathrooms are icky enough!

With the exception of recording devices (phones, video cameras, etc.) not being allowed to see into stalls, they should be able to police what you are doing - sex, drugs, etc.

Where was the ACLU when the guy from Wham, George Michael, was caught in the airport bathroom, tapping his foot in the stall of an undercover officer? I guess since Michael pleaded no contest, then had the cop perform in Michael's new music video, all is okay.

Some day, a person mocking the ACLU will need them to protect their Constitution-given liberties. You may not agree with their choice of cases, but many people don't understand why the ACLU has a function in the first place. I used to be one of those people, so I know the mindset. It appears this thread is full of those people, so I won't bother to comment further.

thank you for this.

Sometimes the cases the ACLU chooses to defend seem silly on the surface, but it is the underlying legal principle that we should all be concerned with protecting. Should you have an expectation of privacy in a public bathroom? Yes. That's why there are no windows and there are doors.

So, the ACLU has to defend this case because if they don't there is a legal precedent that people don't have the right to expect privacy in a bathroom stall. And then there will be nothing to stop airports or businesses from installing cameras in public restrooms.

So, Dr. Skunky and friends, I look forward to watching you take a dump on YouTube someday soon if the ACLU doesn't succeed in its bid to protect your privacy.:roll:

I am dying over here!!! dying!!!

very good point.


actually, I think they should drop the entire case against the poor dumb pervert. I mean, they tricked the dude! not fair!

however, I think this particular case is not worthy of aclu attention. it just gives people more ammo against them. its ridiculous. sex in a very public place is not acceptable.

You are welcome. Have fun on your date night! We will be at a remote, double-secret location.

Like a bathroom stall?

Y'all are so awesome...

Don't worry, Jen-nay. We can make funn of the ACLU all day and never do them any harm. We crack jokes about what we don't understand.

It was totally fair! They set a trap for people having sex in an airport bathroom and he was caught.

IMO his sexual preference and stance are his own business - I had no opinion or interest until a congressman started getting frisky in an airport's restroom. I would be just as offended if he had been caught soliciting a female prostitute in an AIRPORT BATHROOM.

At some point manners, class, and intelligence HAVE to come into play.

Elected official + infamous public sex site = scandal!

You said "stance" So punny scooterbug

please, you really dont feel sorry for him do you? He was busted fair and square...

No pun was intended - I am SO sick of hearing about his "wide stance" on the news!!!!!

I'm sure someone w/ an XY can correct me, but I'm thinking that there's a slight difference between how you correctly use the toilet and solicit gay sex!

Directly from the ACLU-


ACLU Statement In Support Of Senator Larry Craig’s Efforts To Withdraw His Guilty Plea (1/16/2008)
NEW YORK – The American Civil Liberties Union supports Senator Larry Craig’s attempt to have his guilty plea withdrawn because the Minnesota law under which he was arrested is unconstitutionally broad. The statute punishes “offensive, obscene or abusive language” which tends to arouse “alarm, anger or resentment” in others. Clearly, this law has the potential to ensnare and criminalize legal, constitutionally protected free speech, including solicitation for private sex.


It is the law that was used to get Craig, not the fact that he solicited gay sex in a bathroom. Y'all really need to look a bit closer.


OK- done with this one. Have at it and have a great time!

Good night and good luck!

I don't understand. How is sex solicitation* free speech?

*doesn't this mean sex for money, which is illegal?

How is this different from you asking to buy illegal drugs not being a free speech issue? I'd think the icky factor of sex in the next stall is comparable to not screaming "fire".

Sadly, I am not up on my airport public restroom sex legal statutes. I'm busy trying not to touch anything and catch my flight!

I don't use illegal drugs, but if I did, I wouldn't reach under the stall to buy them from someone sitting on a toilet. (unless I was smoking crack -- those people do some stupid things.)

Regarding soliciting for sex, I've never heard of money not being involved in some way. You either have to pony up for a drink, dinner, diamond ring, or volunteer to pay for a babysitter and a mini-vacation.

True dat!

I vote for all of the above except insert dogsitter, instead of babysitter

You need to find some less mercenary women. We're not all posting price lists on the headboards! :roll:

That's the problem, the prices aren't on the headboard. They are hidden fees. lol.

They're not hidden fees, they're baggage allowances like on the airplanes!

You get what you pay for, and you apparently choose to pay for it! ;-)

Such a catch-22 - you turn down a drink and you're a biatchy lesbian, you accept and you're bought and paid for!

I'd like to hear from the first guy who has not paid, in some way, for sex.

Mr. Kitty has already gone to bed. Sorry.

Does a six pack of Michelob count?

The next ACLU case.

The headboard?! That's where I'm supposed to post my wishlist? No wonder I've not been getting the handbags and shoes that constitute my wages! :funn:

Dear baby Jesus, women have to pay in their own way. What man hasn't expected a nice outfit, tasteful make-up, attractive haircut, a few highlights, preferably a personal trainer or good fitness regime? Don't men put just as much emphasis on a woman's career when selecting a partner?

If we're making free market analogies here, doesn't the whole double standard come into play? We make womens' sexuality the more valuable commodity by limiting it.

C'mon SJ, be fair. We're not all hookers.

C'mon SJ, be fair. We're not all hookers.

And we dislike the ones who ARE as much as you do.

Does a six pack of Michelob count?

Though I really don't count Michelob as a beer, it falls into the category of buying a drink, which I listed.

Punzy, not all men expect a nice outfit, actually, we'd be happy if women were nekked. Tasteful makeup is fine, but not necessary. Attractive Haircuts? I've never seen a bad one on a lady. Highlights? I'm indifferent. Personal trainer/fitness regime is a good thing. Career? As long as she isn't working on the garbage truck (no offense to the ladies who are), I'm okay with whatever she chooses.

I never said that women don't pay for sex, but they don't have to spend money to get it. As a friend of mine was recently told, "beautiful women never have to buy batteries."

My thoughts of men having to spend money to have sex, is in no way intended to suggest that women are hookers. My suggestion is that if you want that handbag, you need to learn to bargain. ;-) Getting that handbag may be easier than you think. (State your needs and the costs to play.)
