ACLU defends white supremacist group NSC-131 over "Keep New England White" banner, facing NH Civil Rights Act charges.

The ACLU of New Hampshire is defending a white supremacist group, NSC-131, in a case involving a "Keep New England White" banner hung on a highway overpass. The group faces charges under the New Hampshire Civil Rights Act, but the ACLU argues that an unfavorable court decision could set a precedent for the government to suppress viewpoints and target groups based on trespassing charges. The New Hampshire Attorney General's office has appealed the dismissal of the case, stating that the message violated the civil rights act.
