Kesher Talk

Oh, Satan? OpinionJournal.com notes that the ACLU, in Inglis, Fla., is standing up for the Dark Prince. "The ACLU has sent a letter to Mayor Carolyn Risher that said it will file a federal lawsuit unless she removes anti-Satan proclamations from four posts that sit at the town's entrances. The proclamation bans Satan within the town limits. The ACLU, naturally, is threatening to sue, but would it have standing to do so? Or has the group actually signed up as a plaintiff?"

I just wanted to relay my experience. I volunteered for the ACLU in Pittsburgh in my early years of high school. On the days when I was left to answer the phone, I took a lot of phone calls from a fellow calling himself "Satan," asking to sue some local yobbo or another for discrimination. I guess he finally got through to someone a bit more sympathetic than myself!
