I hate that groups like the ACLU have to defend nazi scum to protect my liberties. Better that the government not violate our rights in the first place, but in lieu of that, even nazi scum is subject to the same rights and due process as any other citizen. However, I wouldn’t mind if they got pantsed a couple of times by their lawyers.

I’m saying if you say “fuck you rights” to bad people it’s easier for the government to fuck everyone’s rights
Then the government should have gotten a fucking warrant so there wouldn’t be any grounds to appeal.
You’ll be real sorry the next time a Republican is in office and uses this as precedent to spy on and persecute anyone sympathetic to the LGBT community.
Removed, ad hominem. Everyone is entitled to a defense.
