An organization one may think is a sad parody of the ACLU but is indeed a real organization that is the exact opposite of the ACLU. The American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ) was founded by fundamentalist Christian televangelist Pat Robertson to turn the United States into a theocracy via the Supreme Court. It is currently run by fellow neoconservative Jay Sekulow and headquartered in Washington DC (next door to the National Pro-life Action Center and right down the street from the courts, no less).
It is a known fact that many students from Robertson's Regent University start their political careers by interning at this organization.

After the ACLJ sued my school district we were forced to say prayers to Jesus every morning before class. Fuck you, ACLJ.

Get the ACLJmug. Private property is basically the stuff you, and only you, own but do not participate in using yourself though you get whatever benefit that stuff contributes to. For example, a factory is the private property of a factory owner, though the factory owner (boss) doesn't actually work within the factory and instead hires people (wage laborers) to work in the factory producing stuff, though the boss collects whatever profit the workers in the factory produce.
It is also know as "impersonal property" and is considered the defining part of capitalism. Anarchists (most notably P.J. Proudhon) and communists contrast private property with personal property, personal property being things like the house you live in, your bed, your guitar, your computer, your shoes, etc. which you are actively using for yourself and thus have the right to exclude others. Private property on the other hand creates an illegitimate authority and, according to them, must be abolished.

My boss operates an apple orchard on acres and acres of private property he inherited from his parents and hires us to harvest all the apples for him, and while he makes a great deal of money off the apples he pays those of us who actually pick the fruit $6 an hour, but he's able to because he owns the orchard.

The school has never been accredited by any accreditation institution and even claims it has no wish to be. The school sells degrees in such far-ranged topics as Christian education and missionary studies. The main classroom building resembles a trailer park home. In order to get into this school, all you need is a checkbook and a pen.
Erica couldn't get into Regent University since her high school GPA was a 1.04, luckily she got into Patriot Bible University.

Get the Patriot Bible Universitymug. A business disguised as a school that uses spam as a means of luring in new unsuspecting customers. This diploma mill uses many sneaky advertising tactics, such as coming up as the first result in google search when typing in "university of", TV ads featuring sensationalized stories and fast-paced music, and a YouTube channel that features their "success stories" and that blocks any user that posts anything remotely critical of the school in their videos' comment sections. According to several accounts on the internet, most classes at UoP consist of nothing remotely useful. If one is able to get a job after graduating from here and pay off the $200,000 they owe in loans, they are truly lucky.
Rob didn't want to go to community college so he enrolled at University of Phoenix and found himself shelling out $50k a year to learn absolutely nothing.

Despite what many people will say, Hu is a communist in name only, as most of the industry under his rule is privately owned as opposed to state-owned. He has been labeled as one of the world's worst dictators by several publications and is known for implementing censorship of the Chinese internet. He is also known for continuing the practice of turning China into a place of sweatshops and not of people's needs.
Hu Jintao is busy chipping away at all the communist reforms promised to China by Mao Zedong. If Mao could see what Hu has done to China he would cry.

Get the Hu Jintaomug. An epic video on YouTube featuring a young girl with a sidebang explaining the aspects of emo kids and scene kids that are of great annoyance to her as well as to many others. Among her reasons for her contempt of emos and scene kids are their ways of "trying so hard to fit in", "giving new genres to their music" such as calling My Chemical Romance "punk" when they don't know what punk rock is, taking sideways photos that look ridiculous, and pretending to be gay or lesbian.
As of September 2009, the video has received over 500 video responses, one of the highest on YouTube, mostly from pissed off scene kids who can't handle legitimate criticism of their manufactured fashion styles and shitty emo music. The vast majority of these responses simply call the young lady in question "ugly" or "stupid" and do not address the content of her arguments.

The video known as Emo/Scene Kids SUCK is highly informative for anyone doing research on why emo sucks.

The story of May Day:
In early May of 1886, anarchist and labor activists rioted in Haymarket Square in Chicago in the name of winning an eight-hour workday. During that time, most capitalist bosses required their workers to work for 14 hours a day with little breaks or days off. During the riot, someone threw a bomb. Five anarchists were accused of bomb-throwing or a conspiracy to do such and were tried, later convicted, and hanged. May Day became a day to remember their sacrifice as well as the sacrifices of all laborers who must work under the conditions of wage slavery.

During May Day, the anarchists, labor unionists, and immigrant groups held a large rally in the middle of the city to show solidarity.
