The ACLU at times has battled San Diego in court over a historic cross on a veterans' memorial and the use of city facilities by the Boy Scouts, collecting hundreds of thousands of dollars of money from city taxpayers for its efforts.

Now the city is considering a plan to honor the organization.

"San Diego City Councilwoman Toni Atkins and Council President Scott Peters have placed on the city council docket one of the most despicable and anti-Christian items in recent years. They are planning to declare American Civil Liberties Union Day in the city of San Diego," warned James Hartline, who himself is a candidate for the city council this year.

"The American Civil Liberties Union has done everything possible to destroy Christianity in the American culture and government. From tearing down crosses on public property to removing crosses and the Ten Commandments from governmental buildings, there has been no greater hate machine against our constitutional right to free religious expression in America than the ACLU!" Hartline said.

"The idea that radical lesbian San Diego City Councilwoman Toni Atkins and her leftist council partner Scott Peters want to honor the ACLU by declaring a day of honor IN OUR NAME in the city of San Diego is just plain evil," he said.

Hartline, a longtime activist for family values in his city, said the ACLU has a history there of running a long-term battle to kick Boy Scouts off public property in Balboa Park that other organizations are allowed to use, forcing homosexual marriage on society, attacking pro-life protesters at abortion clinics and restricting the rights of school children to have Bible studies or pray on school grounds.

Hartline said the meeting is tomorrow, in an apparent effort by city officials to load the item onto a council agenda and adopt it with little public notice.

"We cannot ignore this terrible attack on our faith and values by allowing our name to be used to honor the horrific and hateful ACLU," Hartline said.

He told WND the issue is so important because it "institutionalizes the organization from a positive perspective."

"What's problematic from a legal perspective is the fact that the ACLU has gotten hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal settlements, so if they sue the city again, it gets hard for opposition to go against them," he said.

"Naming a day in their honor is entering into very dangerous ground," he said.

Not only did the city pay the ACLU about $900,000 in one of its settlements, the ACLU has been on the opposite side of 80 percent of San Diego's residents on issues such as the Mt. Soledad Cross, he said.

"Here we have a council member wanting to honor a group that's going against the will of the majority of San Diegans," he said.

the VOTE was 5-2 in favor of this.

said vote took place today

Wow! 16Bn in the hole, citizens living in tent cities and these politicians want to honor an organization that has helped turn CA into a 3rd world cesspool? Un-freaking-believable!

Who votes for these morons?!?!?!

THE ACLU, AS WELL AS MANY OTHER "HATE ORGANIZATIONS, NEED TO BE SHUT DOWN!

THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF A TYPICAL "HATE GROUP"!

AT LEAST HAVE THE DECENCY TO TAKE "AMERICAN" OUT OF THEIR NAME!

ALSO IT WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA TO TAKE THE WORD "CIVIL" OUT OF THEIR NAME TOO, BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING "CIVIL" ABOUT THIS GROUP!
