After some hemming and hawing, the ACLU weighs in on the FLDS raid.

“The ACLU has serious concerns that the state’s actions so far have not adequately protected the fundamental rights at stake,” the national organization said in a statement recently posted on its Web site.

The ACLU said children have a right not to be abused or forced into marriages by their parents or anyone else, parents have a constitutionally protected right to free exercise of religion and to raise their children in their faith, as well as a fundamental right to due process of the law.
