Ayatollah Speaks Out Against SPLC
Sacramento county was to adopt a resolution against bullying, pretty much all related to gays, which was on the agenda tuesday. Nobody likes bullies, but what caught my attention was that Sac county was proposing to partner up with the Southern Poverty Law Center on this enterprise. While I believe some of these gay protection efforts are a bit more propaganda than they are actual protections, I don't think I stand on noble ground in opposing them. But the SPLC is quite another story. The SPLC is nothing more than a propaganda mill that employs lawyers that would otherwise be starving to death trying to practice law in a competitive environment. SPLC has gone out of their way to label anyone in the immigration law enforcement movement as a domestic terrorist, racist, xenophobe, and hate monger. With a documented history of bias the likes that they have published and exhibited, I don't see any reason the County of Sacramento should be partnering up with them or lending them any credibility. I spoke against the resolution as written, and said if that the SPLC should be removed from the resolution. My testimony is at 20.00 on the time bar

So my advice to the ones behind this resolution is to pick your allies more carefully. Without the SPLC's name attached to this it would have sailed through and been approved Quote:

Wow AG, you did a great job addressing the Council about the SPLC. One big high five!!!!

The SPLC is not just trying this bullying act to stop bullying but they are using it to stop free speech!! If you say something or print something someone doesn't like you will be punished and also free speech articles would not be published..........Just ask Canada.
They are on the attack all over the country. http://www.splcenter.org/get-informe...wsgen-20110607 |
I used to say it is the water we drink but I now believe we can say it is the air we breathe also.

Carol Swain, a black woman, is Professor of law and politics at Vanderbilt University. Here's one of her articles: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/carol-..._b_255029.html She says: There is a name for what has happened. It is called "mission creep." Mission creep occurs when an organization strays beyond its original purpose and engages in actions antithetical to its goals. Rather than monitoring hate groups, the Southern Poverty Law Center has become one. Here's her just released book: http://www.frc.org/eventregistration...th-and-promise She sent an advanced, autographed copy to me which I am presently reading. |
