But by your sad and evasive attempt at character assasination, u r saying you cannot refute their information on these groups. Please come back when and if you can.BlackTsunamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02349560427762283170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33855769.post-82790985435932867402010-11-24T08:50:06.950-08:002010-11-24T08:50:06.950-08:00For what it's worth, there's no legal defi...For what it's worth, there's no legal definition for "hate group," which is why even the FBI doesn't "track hate groups."<br /><br />"Hate group" is a deliberately meaningless term the SPLC uses in its fund raising materials to attack its perceived enemies without accusing them of any actual crimes and certainly not hate crimes.<br /><br />"Hate group" is nothing more than a public relations term. <br /><br />The SPLC is a private fund-raising group. It has no mandate, no authority, legal or moral to designate anyone as anything.<br /><br />In short, the SPLC has no more power to designate "hate groups" than does the SPCA.<br /><br />The most ironic (read: "hypocritical") thing about the Southern Poverty Law Center is that NOT ONE of its top ten, highest paid executives is a minority.<br /><br />http://wp.me/pCLYZ-67<br /><br />In fact, according to the SPLC's hometown newspaper, the Montgomery Advertiser, despite being located LITERALLY in the back yard of Dr. Martin Luther King's home church, the SPLC has NEVER hired a person of color to a highly paid position of power. <br /><br />If these are your "experts" on race and diversity, there are better ones out there.Richard Keefehttp://rkeefe57.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
