POSTED: 5:21 am EDT October 14, 2005
LA PLATA, Md. -- The American Civil Liberties Union has filed a complaint about a Christian comedy team that performed at five southern Maryland public schools.

The ACLU of Maryland sent a letter to Charles County Superintendent James Richmond, characterizing the program as "a vehicle for religious proselytizing" that violates the First Amendment.

Rick and Mick Vigneulle have performed at two high schools and three middle schools in Charles County this year. The pair invite students to off-campus pizza parties where they deliver a religious message.

A schools spokeswoman said their program, "Attitude Check," promotes anti-drug, anti-suicide and motivational messages. School officials approved the program, and spokeswoman Katie O'Malley Simpson says they didn't perceive it as religious.

WOW! Nothing was done at school!

SO, now the ACLU wants to control what students do away from school! Someone needs to be charged for allowing ACLU members to run loose in public off their leash!

UM???  Isn't there a law that requires ACLU members to be on a leash at all times in public??

I know there are all kinds of thoughts about Christians filing law suits, but maybe we should consider an exception for the ACLU. Why not have Christians consider class actions suits against the ACLU for conspiracy to deny or restrict Constitutional Rights? I wonder what would happen if Christians filed a suit in every possible court in the entire country all at once! Wouldn't it be appropriate to ask for massive punitive damages and damages for pain and suffering. How about several thousand petitioners for each suit?? I'm thinking that we could get lawyers to represent us free of charge, and all damages could be awarded to charity.

Cheesy  Just thinking out loud. Maybe the damages could include the forcing of ACLU members to:

Buy Bibles for school children;

Make annual gifts to the Gideons;

Build nativity scenes on public property every Christmas around the country;

Make and place bulletin board materials for Thanksgiving and Christmas displays in every classroom in America;

Assign each ACLU member a certain number of community service hours every year that must be done for the Salvation Army;

Make them sing Christmas Carols so many hours each year in front of every town hall in America;

Make them replace all of the textbooks that were taken out of public schools because they contained references to REAL American History and GOD;

Make them purchase, rent, or lease facilities for the Boy Scouts to use around the country;

Cheesy  I know that part of this is in fun - OR IS IT?

Does anyone else have any ideas about what we want the ACLU to do in trying to undo the damage they have done to America over the last 50+ years?

Love In Christ,
Tom

If they are on a leash then that leash is way to long.

I like your ideas, Brother Tom. How soon can we get them implemented?

Don't forget what they have been trying to do to the Military and to other governmental offices.

Perhaps they could be made to provide Bibles for them also and protective equipment for those they are trying to get killed.

I think leashes are to gentle a punishment for them. What is the punishment for treason .... aiding the enemy?

AMEN1!

Add to the list....

Make them pray, out loud in public.

Make them give back what they have stolen, from the American Christians. Grin
