Nothing Better to Do?

" WASHINGTON (AP) -- The American Civil Liberties Union is investigating complaints from more than a dozen black employees at a Six Flags theme park who were told their hairstyles were inappropriate."

Why do dogs lick themselves? Because they can.

Why does the IRS go after the little guys? Because they don't have lawyers.

People and institutions do pick the 'low hanging' fruit first.

If civil liberties are defined by the Bill of Rights and the Constitution, the ACLU has significantly more important violations it could pursue. Firearms bans in DC and other cities. Property being seized around the country by governments for private purposes are just two.

No, the ACLU believes hairstyles are more important. It is certainly an easy and highly public case.
Too bad those 'do-gooders' at the ACLU don't have the stamina to tackle the really tough cases. I guess they prefer to lick themselves.
