“In a free and democratic society, we cannot allow the government to suppress lawful speech, even speech that may stir emotions,” Kathleen Taylor, executive director of the ACLU of Washington, said in a statement about the suit on Wednesday. The ACLU’s lawsuit against King County and on behalf of the pro-Palestinian group was filed in federal court in Seattle. It seeks a court order to force King County to place the group’s placards on Metro buses.
