George and Amal Clooney donate $1 million to fight hate groups. <\/p>\n
The headline should read Clooneys give $1 million to support a hate group, the Southern Poverty Law Center. <\/p>\n
The Clooneys are no doubt good folks, well-intentioned, rightly motivated, but deceived. Once a praiseworthy leader in the fight against the KKK, the SPLC now burns crosses in its own way. <\/p>\n

With this donation, the Clooneys join Amazon and J.P. Morgan Chase in shoveling many millions of dollars to the Southern Poverty Law Center, an organization now actively engaged in attacking and seeking to destroy traditional Christian organizations and designating them as hate groups, which results in violence and death threats. <\/p>\n
Do you recall theattack on the Family Research Councilin 2012? Domestic terrorist Floyd Lee Corkins confessed he targeted the Family Research Council because it was cited on the Hate Map of the Southern Poverty Law Center website. Corkins got 25 years for using a firearm to attack FRC staff in their Washington, D.C., offices. He wounded a security guard. <\/p>\n
According to National Review, The Southern Poverty Law Center, the civil rights watchdog group that ABC and NBC so prominently cite, has become a dangerous joke. Its a joke because the very idea that Christians are members of a hate group merely because they advocate for orthodox Christian principles and the liberty to live those principles is so intellectually and ideologically bankrupt that its barely worth addressing. <\/p>\n

The SPLC designates Liberty Counsel a hate group because LC advocates biblical marriage, engaging in the debate concerning homosexuality and same-sex marriage. But for the SPLC, free speech, religious freedom and exercising freedom of conscience are dog whistles for hate. <\/p>\n
Among other groups condemned by the SPLC, traditional conservative groups having nothing to do with hate, racism, violence, fascism or discrimination: <\/p>\n
Alliance Defending Freedom: Bill Bright (founder, Campus Crusade for Christ), Larry Burkett (founder, Crown Financial Ministries), James Dobson (founder, Focus on the Family), D. James Kennedy (founder, Coral Ridge Ministries), Marlin Maddoux <\/p>\n
James Kennedy Ministries <\/p>\n

Family Research Council Tony Perkins, James Dobson <\/p>\n
American Family Association <\/p>\n
Baptist Churches <\/p>\n
Pacific Justice Institute <\/p>\n
American Freedom Law Center <\/p>\n
Center for Security Policy <\/p>\n
David Horowitz Freedom Center <\/p>\n
Jihad Watch <\/p>\n
Islam: the Religion of Peace <\/p>\n
Tea Party Nation <\/p>\n
Various Catholic and Jewish organizations are also condemned as hate groups. It appears the SPLC employs a conveniently simplistic methodology for identifying and then persecuting so-called hate groups: Anyone holding to traditional moral values such as heterosexual, monogamous marriage is immediately tagged; anyone warning of the dangers of sharia and jihad is automatically a hater; anyone concerned about preserving the Constitution and defending God-given rights is condemned; those holding to traditional Christian values are targeted, along with all pro-lifers, everyone in favor of strong national security and all people opposed to illegal immigration. All Trump supporters are haters, dont you know? <\/p>\n
In other words, unless you toe the line according to what the SPLC dictates concerning positions on controversial topics of the day, you are targeted for destruction, which means you are sued, silenced and threatened. Only the SPLC and friends have human rights in America today. <\/p>\n
Thanks to the hate group designation published by the SPLC, Liberty Counsel has receiveddeath threats. <\/p>\n
Apparently all this has little influence on George Clooney, or perhaps he just doesnt know about the dark soul of the SPLC. <\/p>\n
What happened in Charlottesville, and what is happening in communities across our country, demands our collective engagement to stand up to hate, said Clooney, explaining his motivation to make the SPLC donation. <\/p>\n
We agree, George. However, one does not douse the fire by pouring on gasoline or by turning on the good guys. Lets stand up to the real haters, not just Nazis and white supremacists. Lets include antifa, BLM, jihad, communists, anarchists and all enemies of liberty and justice for all, including the SPLC. Youd be wise to ask for a refund, George. <\/p>\n
How ironic: seeing the Klan pass the torch to the SPLC. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
