" it may be time for the Southern Poverty Law Center to close up shop"

YOU ARE ON OUR LIST! It's like Seinfeld, "You're on our list!"



Funny how if you "Donate" to  Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC ), it seems to be immunity from being on their "hate map and list." The SPLC  works like a cross between Joseph McCarthy, Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. m/r


Southern Poverty Law Center Gets Creative to Label 'Hate Groups'


Principled conservatives are lumped together with bigots.                 

September 7, 2017, by Megan McArdle         

In 2010, the Southern Poverty Law Center designated the Family Research Council a “hate group” because of its orthodox position on homosexuality, and its occasionally incendiary defenses of that position.
In 2012, Floyd Corkins showed up at the Family Research Council headquarters with a gun.
I don’t mean to imply that these two things were connected. I'm telling you that they were connected. We know because the shooter told the FBI where he got the idea.
Conservatives have used this to try to discredit the Southern Poverty Law Center's list of hate groups. But the sad truth is that if you criticize someone, there’s always some small chance that an unstable person will read your criticism and decide its subject needs killing. The shooting is still not the fault of the writer, but the fault of the shooter.
