Southern Poverty Law Center: Projecting Hate

By Douglas V. Gibbs

On August 20, 2017 I attended the American Freedom Alliance Summer Conference.  I am a fellow of the organization, as a matter of fact.  The conference was titled, "California: From Gold to Dust".  Here in California we have been under decades of liberal left Democrat Party control, and the State has suffered immensely as a result.  What has caused this catastrophic collapse of a once great State?

A number of speakers were brought in, and were arranged to serve on various panels so as to address the problems facing California.  Some of the topics were environmentalism, the illegal alien invasion, and economic decisions made by the Democrats regarding taxation, spending, and various other economic and political decisions.  I took rabid notes regarding each panel and each topic, fully expecting to put an article out shortly after the event.  However, my schedule made it difficult to find the time to put it all down.  I was sure I would write the article, but it was looking more and more like it might have to wait a few weeks.

Then, after a few days, I discovered I was not the only one in the room taking notes with the intent to write an article.  The Southern Poverty Law Center had one of their reporters in the event with us, dining with us, spending time with us, and preparing notes on the event that were more fabricated than having anything to do with the truth.

The title of the article is what really threw me for a loop.

American Freedom Alliance Event Blames Immigrants for California's "Destruction"

The headline itself is based on false information.  Immigration is a wonderful thing.  Immigrants are people who desire to come to the United States, apply for that privilege, and then go through the legal process that is in place so that they may achieve their dream.  Illegal aliens are not immigrants.  They are federal fugitives who broke the law and refused to follow immigration protocols that are in place largely in order to protect the receiving population from disease, criminals, or other persons who do not pose as a safe entrant into the United States.

Ironically, because of our primary topic last year, where we asked if Islam was compatible with Western Civilization (and the obvious answer is a resounding "no"), the Southern Poverty Law Center awarded the American Freedom Alliance with the label of "hate group," and we made mention of that distinction at the start of this year's event.

I have a saying.  "If you're not ticking them off, you're doing something wrong."

So, we welcomed the designation by the SPLC as being a hate group, despite the fact that in reality the SPLC is the real hate group.  Them labeling us as a hate group is in a way a confirmation that the liberal left was recognizing that we were out there challenging their madness.  Acknowledgement by the liberal left, normally portrayed in a hateful manner, can be a badge of honor for conservatives.

The writer's name at the SPLC website could not be found.  When you are a hater from the SPLC, I guess you don't want people to know who you are.  It's like the snowflake antifa punks covering their faces.  Anyway, the SPLC writer wrote in his or her (that's the only pronouns God gave us) hate-filled piece about this year's American Freedom Alliance event, "the speakers predictably attacked transgender people, the Black Lives Matter movement and California’s immigrant population."  The article then goes on to describe the panels, with sarcastic quips and inserts along the way.

The author then proceed to take keynote speaker Victor Davis Hanson, a Hoover Institute fellow and author of "Mexifornia," completely out of context, and then lied about the prevalence of the reconquista movement, acting as if it doesn't exist and it's just a big conspiracy theory.  I've been on the front lines of immigration protests and confrontations, and I know what I've heard the other side say, and it drips with reconquista rhetoric - as does many of today's leftist-written textbooks.

The article appeared on the website of the same Southern Poverty Law Center who has been sued for falsely accusing a Christian organization of belonging on a hate list, because the church dares to preach God's word about the biblical view of homosexuality.  Officials of the Dr. James Kennedy Ministries, based in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., say the SPLC has deceptive practices, wrongly asserting that some organizations breed or fuel hate because of their religious positions on such things as same-sex marriage and other social issues.

Kennedy Ministries filed the lawsuit in the U.S. District Court in Montgomery, Ala., where the SPLC is headquartered.

The SPLC had to also recently remove the historic Iowa town Amana Colonies from its "hate map." The SPLC had targeted Amana Colonies as a refuge of "hate" because of an alleged link to the neo-Nazi website Daily Stormer. The Amana Colonies is a historic landmark, the site of seven German Pietist villages that produced a self-sustaining local economy for eighty years.

In truth, it is the Southern Poverty Law Center who is the hate group.  They target those who dare to stand against their liberal left political beliefs, calling any political opposition "hate".  Isn't that what the Nazis in Germany did?  Isn't that what the communists did?  Isn't what the SPLC does with their "hate list" propaganda an example of a hateful attempt at the suppression of opposing viewpoints. . . no different than what the Nazis, fascists and communists did?

The SPLC is a liberal left hate group that seems to be just fine with spreading their own hate and discontent, attacking religious freedoms of Christians while coddling groups like Islam who openly claim to be an enemy of the United States, and our system of liberty.
