The SPLC is the hate group. They hate Jews, Christians, and critics of radical Islam.

[MegaAstrodude]

@1:50,

You could say the same about Angela Davis. Why not list her name on your hatewatch lists?

[SouthernSalute]

Morris Dees is a cock sucking Jew,the Fourth Reich is coming!

@TrueBlueJMS

I can't believe anyone would listen to the SPLC and not think they are biased a lot!

The alcu and splc are tearing down what was once a great christian nation.

[crackawise]

I hate the SPLC...that much is for sure.

[TrueBlueJMS]

I love the SPLC because they provide a very valuable service -- when they condemn a group they let me know they are worthy of support. :)

[WhiteyMcWhiteJr]

These jewish white haters are full of shit. All the interracial hate crimes are committed by non-whites against whites. Hundreds of rapes, assaults, murders, every day. Whites are always the victims whereas negroes, mestizos, pakis, muslims, arabs, etc. are always the perpetrators. And it's the same way in Europe, Africa, Canada as well as in USA. Whites are under siege by the colored hordes of the planet, who are being led and encouraged by the same white-hating jew liars you see in this video.

[libertyeconomics]

Morris Dees rocks!

[karmalevel]

fuck niggers!

@tsharpmac420 ... well, if you can furnish proof that there are truly an extremly low number of african americans employed by SPLC, and that the hghest paid executives are all white, then we can all believe that what you're saying is true. I will reserve opinion until you provide a legitimate source for those statistics.

[tsharpmac420]

@Samantha30090 so you dont see a problem with the extremly low number of african americans employed by SPLC, or the fact that the hghest paid executives are all white? You would think that an orginization with a history of defending african americans would have a lot of african american employees

[Samantha30090]

@tsharpmac420 ... I have no way of knowing that Morris Dees sees blacks or other minorities as inferior. I've never seen any documentation to support that arguement. Seems to me like he's a pretty good guy, though, or he wouldnt be assisting the less fortunate.

[tsharpmac420]

@Samantha30090 this is from splc.org "Alabama lawyer and businessman Morris Dees sympathized with the plight of the poor and the powerless" The early SPLC did nothing to help poor white ppl, he specificly represented both poor and middle class african americans, that he saw as powerless with out an educated white mans help. Its possible to be a racist and not hate other races, if you help a minority race bc you think they are inferior you are a racist. It wasnt about poverty it was about blacks

[Samantha30090]

@tsharpmac420 ... morris dees is anything but racist.

[tsharpmac420]

god damn morris dees, you are a fucking retard, mcveigh and nickols recieved help constructing their bomb from a fbi informant, physical help as well as supplies and the how to aspect of creating a bomb

[tsharpmac420]

@Samantha30090 yea i know one his name is morris dees, wait hes just a racist.......

[Samantha30090]

@itubenowplease no, I've never heard of obama bin laden. Have you ever heard of uneducated, racist white trash?

[VictoriaWarrior]

SPCL should look in their own back yard first. They are the biggest hate group on the planet.

[Samantha30090]

@itubenowplease ... i do follow the news every single day, and if you follow the news, too, then you should be able to give me specific examples of why you think WWIII is imminent. If you cannot, then you really are an immature idiot.

[Samantha30090]

@itubenowplease ... who is sticking their hand down your pants and harassing you in every aspect of your life? I realize that mr bush started the paranoia over "terrorism" to meet his own financial agenda, but I'm not sure how that's leading us to WWIII. It can only lead to WWIII if the people feed into the fantasy of "terrorism" by believing it. So, please do explain how we are headed to WWIII.

[Samantha30090]

@itubenowplease ... you dont have any "God" given rights, you silly, backward hillbilly. You are no patriot & the Founding Fathers wouldn't have spit on you. The Founding Father's never intended the likes of you to have a vote or voice in gvt, and I can see why. The "right" to vote was not extended to the lower class until the Jacksonian Era some 60 or 70 years after the American Revolution. As for the "right" to bear arms, that was extended only to a "well organized militia".

[Gmissile]

I didn't know that cesspools could talk.

Who funds the SPLC?

I'll give long odds that the creepazoid Joyce Foundation is on the list.

Is there anybody with half a brain that still takes corporate / corporatist Nooz and their other nausea inducing programming,whether print or broadcast, seriously?

[sjvietboy408]

If the militia groups are "hate groups armed and dangerous" then they must have been afraid of the militia groups, if they are afraid of the militia groups then it must mean that they have never been in close contact with the groups because they are "dangerous and racist" which means they have never interviewed these militia groups to see what are their beliefs and purpose so how the hell did this SPLC know that those are 50% hate groups? These traitors talks alot but has not proven anything.

Business is booming.
