    To me, there are few things as heart-warming as inter-faith solidarity: Muslims defending Christians, Jews defending Muslims, Christians defending Jews. I tell ya, it almost makes me teary eyed!

    A really weird claim to make about an advocacy group that has extremist groups as diverse and wide ranging as the New Black Panthers, the Jewish Defense League, Nation of Islam, KKK, and Family Research Council on its list of designated hate groups.

    All they have to do is give a kickback. They will be removed.

    Most eyebrow-raising is that of all Americans, it is the evangelical Christians who are far more likely to be accepting of negative political rhetoric towards Muslims, and it is evangelical Christians who are far more likely to believe Muslims are a threat to our nation.

    McVeigh had help from the Michigan militia. The white power types were involved in a plot to blow up the Oklahoma building. It wasn't a lone wolf at all.

    When dealing with the United States, terrorism is perfectly justified.

    I appreciate a good attempt at trolling, but SPLC has been around for ages, and I am confident we would have heard about it if Black, Muslim, and Jewish extremist hate groups were able to bribe their way off the SPLC hate list.

    The bottom line is that, despite what Fox and Brietbart choose to report to their fans, SPLC has a documented and genuine commitment to identifying hate groups regardless of religion, color, or creed.

    Not trolling at all. Just fact. The SPLC started out with good intentions, good will, righted a wrong. Not anymore. They are now nothing other than an organization with a political agenda. They use their once honorable reputation to collect donations and take those monies and hide it in offshore bank accounts. Very little actually goes to fighting injustice anymore. It is all about enriching its board and political agenda. For example in 2015 they brought in 50 million of contributions and spent a whole 61 thousand on legal services. This is not breaking news.
