The people of Fremont, Nebraska have voted to approve a ban on the renting of housing to illegal immigrants and the countdown to a nationwide outcry (and busloads of ACLU lawyers) is underway.
From the story at Breitbart:
So, let me get this straight - the ACLU is going to argue in court that an enemy invader of this country, someone who has crossed an American border illegally, has the right to live anywhere they want in America? Is that their position? Or are they going to argue that a landlord doesn't have a right to establish that a prospective tenant has broken one of the most basic laws in America?
Someone help me out here - what is the ACLU position?
From the story at Breitbart:
An eastern Nebraska city that approved a ban on hiring or renting property to illegal immigrants is likely to join Arizona at the center of the national debate about immigration regulations.
But an expected court challenge could keep the measure approved by 57 percent of Fremont voters on Monday from ever taking effect.
The American Civil Liberties Union already has vowed to file a lawsuit to block its enforcement.

Neb. city votes to restrict illegal immigration
FREMONT, Neb. (AP) - An eastern Nebraska city that approved a ban on hiring or renting property to illegal immigrants is likely to join Arizona at the center of the national debate about immigration regulations.
But an expected court challenge could keep the measure approved by 57 percent of Fremont voters on Monday from ever taking effect.
The American Civil Liberties Union already has vowed to file a lawsuit to block its enforcement.
Fremont City Councilman Scott Getzschman says it will be difficult and costly for the community of 25,000 people to take on the issue.
The city's Hispanic population has surged in the past two decades, largely due to the jobs at two nearby meatpacking plants.

My preferred position for them would be with their backs to the wall.
But that's just me.
Y'know, the more news I read, the more convinced I am this country's going to hell and there's nothing we can do to stop it. It's damn depressing, it is.
Courts ignoring the Constitution nullify their own existence.
As courts make themselves irrelevant, only federal use of force (or the threat of force) can stop the people from controlling their own communities.
