ACLJ : Homeland Security

President Obama’s Administration has decided to bring the worst of the worst — the terrorists responsible for the tragedy of 9/11 — to American soil to stand trial. What’s worse, they are planning to take them out of the military justice system and try these terrorists in CIVILIAN courts — a dangerous move that will put our war on terrorism in jeopardy.

Homeland Security


Are there any measures being taken with regard to immigration reform in the combat against terrorism?
Are you concerned that the government will twist the Ashcroft Anti-Terrorism bill and turn it against Christians, for example, who may protest peaceably outside of abortion clinics?
As a result of the events on Sept. 11th, I think our nation has come together in a positive direction. Do you agree?
Can the ACLU be charged with aiding and abetting terrorism?
Can't we draw a line in the sand giving Iraq a date by which to prove they have destroyed their weapons of mass destruction? Can't the UN and the public see Iraq's noncompliance as the "smoking gun" they want to see?
Considering the magnitude of the attacks on 9/11 and the future threats to our national security, don't you think it's time for our allies to decide to join our effort to eliminate the threat posed by the current Iraqi regime?
Did the US ever praise the efforts of terrorists in the IRA and are homicide bombers really so desperate that the must give their lives for a cause?
Do you feel that if the UN sends inspectors back into Iraq to search for weapons of mass destruction, that it will bring an end to Hussein's ability to make these weapons?
Do you see a difference between the relationship of the UN and Hussein, and that of the League of Nations and Hitler?
Doesn’t the ACLU make it more difficult to fight the war on terrorism?
How can we make sure that, if captured, our soldiers aren't treated worse than the detainees at Guantanamo Bay have been?
How do "we the people" have our voices heard on issues like terrorism?
I heard a report that Russia was paying Iraq several billion dollars for oil and other things. If that's true, and the US invades Iraq, wouldn't Russia have to protect its own interests as well?
I'm all for the idea of getting rid of Saddam Hussein, but if we do invade Iraq and take him out, is there any guarantee that we're still going to be able to get rid of the weapons of mass destruction?
Is it legal to have security cameras in schools without parental consent?
Is it true that if my husband and I attended a church service where a prophetic message was spoken, we could end up on the government’s watch list?
Our leaders are all saying "God Bless America" and calling the nation to prayer. It seems the only people still discriminated against are our children. Will the recent terrorist attacks and their aftermath help lift the ban on prayer in schools?
Recently the Attorney General said that the emphasis on the war on drugs would be superseded by a focus on homeland security. Do you see a problem with that strategy?
Shouldn't the nations of the world take a strong stand against North Korea's nuclear program rather than try appeasement?
Shouldn’t the country stand together instead of letting the terrorists pull us apart?
Some of my friends contend that the Attorney General's anti-terrorism legislation is an attempt to undermine the U.S. Constitution. How do I respond to this?
Under the Patriot Act, can the government conduct unannounced “sneak and peek” searches?
We all know that if Saddam Hussein were to acquire weapons of mass destruction, he would cause major destruction and massive death. That being the case, why wouldn't our Congress want to support the President in stopping this madman?
What do you think of the proposed law that would allow illegal aliens to receive driver’s licenses and unemployment benefits?
What kind of government is Iraq?
What system of checks and balances are there in the new Homeland Security legislation to safeguard against future abuse?
What was the purpose of the recent “secret” Senate session?
What would the ACLU do if there was no longer a military to protest against?
While I agree that we should support President Bush, and I believe that Saddam Hussein probably does have weapons of mass destruction, where's the proof?
While I think 9/11 woke a lot of people up, God is a jealous God, and people need to be serious about seeking his blessing on this country. Don't you agree?
Why do you think the same people who protest a nuclear power plant now want to give Saddam Hussein just about every benefit of the doubt as he hides weapons of mass destruction?
Why is the question whether the US has made its case for war against Iraq? Shouldn't the question be whether Iraq has been in compliance with the UN demand to disarm?
Will the Patriot Act destroy our freedoms?
Wouldn't you say that President Bush put his reelection on the line by some of the issues he addressed in his State of the Union address last night?
