Dangerous hate groups in America. Who will warn us about them? The media tell us. The Southern Poverty Law Center, based in Alabama, calls itself the premier group monitoring hate groups and other extremists. Looking at their map of hate groups, you'd think hate groups were everywhere. Apple gave them a million dollars. But donors don't know that today, the center smears good people.
There is the presence of radical Islam. This Somalian woman speaks out against radical Islam. For that, the center put her on its list.
Join the fight against hate and bigotry. Visit sblcenter.org. I do think that we have a problem with hate in this country.
We put about 10 of these major hate groups out of business. When I first investigated the center, its leaders wouldn't talk to me. Liberal commentator Noemiki Kuntz defended them.
They have a history, a long history, of fighting against extremists like the KKK. History? Yes. But they labeled skeptical Muslims like Ayaan Hirsi Ali as haters.
If you have a horrible experience with religion, that's one thing. It's another thing to use those experiences as ammunition against others who are practicing their religion peacefully. But they're just speaking, criticizing it. Of course, she has the right to free speech as does the Southern Poverty Law Center has a right to push back. We can stand together against hate.
The center also calls the Family Research Council a hate group. The definition of a marriage is what it's been for five thousand years. It's the union of a man and a woman. I often disagree with the council myself, but do they belong on this hate map? When they don't agree with you politically, they're gonna list you as a hater. You are haters. You hate gays.
No. I don't hate gay people, and I know gay people, and I have worked with gay people. But once you become a hate group, you're a target.
Developing now, word of a shooting at the Family Research Council there in Washington. One man was so enraged by what the Southern Poverty Law Center said about the Family Research Council that he went to their headquarters to kill people. A man shot the security guard in the arm. Fortunately, that guard stopped the man before he could shoot anyone else. He told the judge that he was there to kill as many of us as possible because we were a hate group.
The center also smears the Ruth Institute, a Christian group that believes gays should not have an equal right to adopt children. They're not haters. I like gay people. I have no problem with gay people. The issue is what are we doing with kids and the definition of who counts as a parent. There could be cases where the best person for a particular child would be their uncle Harry and his boyfriend. You know, that could be. But we owe it to the children to give them the best we can, which generally is a married mother and father.
So you're a hater. When the Southern Poverty Law Center put the Ruth Institute on its hate map, the institute's bank cut them off. We've determined that you're an organization that promotes hate, violence, harassment, and so therefore we're not doing business with you. The Ruth Institute and the Family Research Council are still on the hate list. There's no appeal, and I sure don't know how you get off.
Morris Dees' salary is more than my entire annual budget. So yeah, whatever they're doing, it pays. Harper's Magazine reported that the center was the richest civil rights group in America, one that spends most of its time and money trying to make more money. They promised to stop fundraising once their endowment reached $55,000,000. But when they reached 55,000,000, they changed that to a 100,000,000, saying that would allow them to cease costly fundraising. But when they reached a 100,000,000, they didn't stop. They collected 200,000,000, then 400,000,000. Now they've got 730,000,000, yet they still smear people to raise more money.
Much of which is in offshore accounts, Caymans and places like that. How do you know? Oh, we look at their September. And it says Cayman Islands?
Now the Southern Poverty Law Center calls groups that simply oppose sexually explicit content in schools anti-government extremists. Moms for Liberty and Moms for America are on the hate map because they dare do things like seek school board seats to try to stop districts from disregarding opinions of parents. Give me a break. The center puts them on the hate map, but not Antifa, the hate group that beats up people on the right? The center's become a hate group itself. It's now a left-wing, money grabbing slander machine.
