One of the things that everyone should remember is that most people and organizations are neither good 100% of the time, nor evil 100% of the time. The Republican party is an excellent example of this. When they are the minority, they oppose the oppression of the big government Democrats mightily, and make us have hope that they are the party we want them to be. However, when they have the majority for too long, corruption inevitably creeps in, and things go badly. The ACLU is an organization that I would not say is primarily good or bad, but it fights certain fights, primarily in court, and frequently over what seems like technicalities in the law. Most often, however, they do come down upon the side of an individual who is being persecuted or discriminated against based upon something other than what that individual has done. They often fight for the rights of people that they disagree with, in a principled manner. Often the enemies of the public, such as individuals who identify themselves as homosexual or muslim, have had their rights trampled upon, and the general public does not want to come to those individuals' aid. The bottom line is that most issues of morality are not able to be argued in court. Under the law, people have the right to be immoral, and to make self destructive choices. The line has to be drawn where they infringe upon someone else's rights, not where the individual makes bad choices. I believe it is foolish and morally wrong to use the force of law to coerce someone to be what the majority considers to be moral. Especially since the only requirement is outward compliance, and a true change of heart is not actually secured in this manner. I will not be doing with Progressive Insurance, just because I have another insurance company already. Obviously, Peter Lewis should have the right to give money to any political organization he desires, and people should be able to make decisions on who they do business with as well. Jeremy D.
