I don't think writing proposals is what the ACLU does.
But they do not seem to be very gung ho on the second amendment.

  Then the ACLU is seriously lax.

Precisely.   Like i said, they've become more politically correct instead of fully defending ALL the Bill of Rights

SIRS...this expert using CDC stats echoes what you often state about the protective use of guns:

Most of the members of any local ACLU chapter are lawyers.
I think they like the idea of wining lawsuits against gun and ammo manufacturers and  retailers.

thier not actually trying to uphold the bill of rights at all but make sure people has those rights, so if the bill of rights does not help the people thier not gonna back it . thier origins are a reaction to the mccarthy era.

but i find them weak now due to black lives matters tend to shut other peoples voice and i hear nothing from aclu. very silent. crickets

...and the 2nd amendment is the 2nd most important amendment to the Constitution & Bill of Rights, that the founders believed......and rightly so

But since the NRA exist the ACLU is a bit redundant to be involved with the 2nd amendment

Yes...IF....they weren't so down on the 2nd most important amendment to the Constitution.  That's the point I'm making....the ACLU was founded to defend the Constitution, in particular the Bill of Rights.  But as we've been referencing thru-out this tangent, they've mutated via the PC virus, and now are picking and choosing which amendments they're going to defend, and which ones aren't currently PC to defend.  It doesn't matter what the NRA has become, this is about what the ACLU is supposed to be

Why should the ACLU be needed to support your stupid "gun rights" anyway?

If you want to complain, complain to THEM.

Because those "stupid gun rights", are part of the Constitution.....JUST as importat as those stupid speech rights, and stupid privacy rights.  It's an organization that's SUPPOSED to defend ALL the stupid rights we have
