Leftist haters see hate everywhere
To the far-Left SPLC, just about any group unsympathetic to illegal immigration is a “hate” group. But there seem to be no Muslim hate groups, funnily enough! They list the alleged hate groups as: KU KLUX KLAN, NEO-NAZI, WHITE NATIONALIST, RACIST SKINHEAD, CHRISTIAN IDENTITY, NEO-CONFEDERATE, BLACK SEPARATIST and GENERAL HATE but MUSLIM HATE is missing. Despite Muslims being far and away the world’s leading source of antisemitism, Muslim organizations must not be listed, apparently, even though the SPLC itself has on occasions mentioned Muslim hate of Jews! That absurdity just shows how far-left they are. You would think that they would at least have a category for Muslim hate just to cover themselves but their bias is so extreme that they have not done so. They list instead totally insignificant groups.
The main achievement of the SPLC is the vast amount of money they raise from their scare-talk. Their latest report discusses only neo-Nazis and the like, of whom there are undoubtely a small but ineffective number, and thus gives the false impression that all the organizations they list are of that ilk.
Some background on the SPLC here and here and here and here. See here for some more useful links. And see here for a comment on where most of the “hate speech” in America comes from. One of the major claims of the SPLC is that they teach tolerance. I can’t find anywhere on their site where they teach tolerance for Americans who like the law to be enforced, however. It’s only some groups especially selected for us by our “betters” that deserve tolerance, apparently.
News report follows:
A record number of hate groups were active in the United States last year, their anger driven by fears of Latino immigration, a souring economy and the election of Barack Obama to the presidency, a report said Thursday. The report by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) showed that 926 hate groups were active in the United States, a four percent rise from the 888 groups active the previous year and a 56 percent rise from the 602 groups documented in 2000.
“Tough economic times provide fertile ground for those who would foment hate against minorities by scapegoating them for our problems,” said Mark Potok, editor of the quarterly Intelligence Report, which monitors the radical right, in an editorial posted on the SPLC website.
The election of Obama, the first African-American president of the United States, has further “inflamed racist extremists who see it as another sign that their country is under siege by non-whites,” Potok said. The report said Obama had received “more threats than any other presidential candidate in memory, and several white supremacists were arrested for saying they would assassinate him or allegedly plotting to do so.” Scores of racially charged incidents including effigy burnings and beatings were reported across the United States after Obama was elected in November.
The hate groups active in the United States include neo-Nazis, white nationalists, racist skinheads, Ku Klux Klan groups, black separatists who don’t like Obama, anti-gay and immigrant groups, and negationists who deny the Holocaust.

Ten bucks says that Morris Dees will soon begin waving a paper of paper in front of TV cameras while screeching, “I have in my hand a list of 57 card-carrying members of the Republican Party!”
What about the zionist hategroups? ADL, AIPAC? I don’t see any anti-islam group on the hatelist. Even Bush had hatespeeches againt arabs and islam, but I don’t see Bush and his party’s name on the hategroup list.
Looks like every real patriot and christian group is on the list, but what about the communist and anarchist parties, what about the satanist and devil worshippers? Looks like that is unacceptable if you don’t want gay marriage, but if you worship the Devil, that is ok…
