I would say that those who sign up to be part of the ACLU should know that they will inevitably have to defend the rights of people they find repugnant. As much as I don't like Nazis, I surely don't want the government to have the power to enact what they would if they were in power (censorship, genocide, etc). So having the ACLU being an aggressive opponent to the government's overreach on civil liberties is fine. I just wish more folks would recognize this.
