Strike Back at the Southern Poverty Law Center
We know that the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) is a goonish organization which targets groups and individuals for law enforcement scrutiny, and does so for arbitrary and capricious reasons. In short, the SPLC is a political bully. But it gets away with this because it is a left-wing organization, operating under a halo of moral sanctitude which the Left has dishonestly acquired.
Nevertheless, if you want to "press charges" against the SPLC, you can do so through the Better Business Bureau. The following link will take you to a convenient BBB web page where you can get the ball rolling:
www.bbb.org/central-alabama/charity-reviews/charity-national/southern-poverty-law-center-in-montgomery-al-4222
Please do share this information with others, and encourage them to became active.

An excellent appraisal of the SPLC's modus operandi, but unfortunately filing complaints with the BBB against these shysters won't accomplish much for two reasons:
1. The SPLC is not an accredited BBB charity as it has not met the Bureau's "Standards for Charity Accountability" for many years.
The BBB attributes this denial of accreditation to the SPLC's “…lack of commitment to transparency.”
2. Very, very few potential SPLC donors are going to check with the BBB prior to sending the SPLC money because of the Center's vast, multimillion dollar public relations wing.
Everybody "knows" that the SPLC is "the nation's leading civil rights organization" because the SPLC has been telling us so for decades.
The Media dutifully regurgitates the SPLC's PR press releases as "fact" without performing even the most rudimentary fact checks.
If the Media or the donors were ever to take a closer look, many would be surprised to learn that:
NOT ONE of the SPLC's top executives is a minority, and for that matter, the SPLC has NEVER hired a person of color to a highly paid position of authority in its entire 42-year history. (Some "civil rights" icon...)

Despite the SPLC's highly promoted "hate group" designation, there is no legal definition for "hate group," which is why even the FBI does not, cannot, designate "hate groups."

And despite the disingenuous use of "poverty" in the brand name, last year the donors sent the SPLC more than $106,000 tax-free donor-dollars each and every day.
(That's more than $4,400 dollars every single hour...)
This figure does not include the millions of dollars in tax-free interest generated by the SPLC's quarter-BILLION cash reserves.

The best way to discredit the SPLC is to simply tell the truth about them. All of the information in the links above came directly from the SPLC's own web site and any first-year journalism student could uncover this information in a couple of hours.
The Internet has been a boon to the SPLC's fundraising apparatus, but the ability to fact-check the SPLC's spurious claims in real-time will ultimately drive them out of business.
Will do.
