I think that the ACLU was wrong in the Skokie case.

You should mention the other groups that you think were wrong as well...the Illinois Supreme Court and the United States Supreme Court.

It's also worth noting that Skokie passed three ordinances banning marches and demonstrations by Nazis.

The authorities in Skokie were not in a position to police the event adequately.

As I recall, the anticipation of violence does not justify prior restraint.

Aside: You may have recently seen on channel 9 a public service announcement. There is a KKK rally in Sharpsburg and the Imperial Wizard has requested that attendees not bring guns.
