On Thanksgiving morning, the top right-hand corner of this page quoted Mark Potok of the Southern Poverty Law Center on what he said was the reaction of hate groups to the dawning of the Age of Obama: "We've seen everything from cross-burnings on lawns of interracial couples to effigies of [President-elect Barack] Obama hanging from nooses to unpleasant exchanges in schoolyards. I think we're in a worrying situation right now."
The Southern Poverty Law Center is a thriving business. The Alabama-based "nonprofit" firm has become a font of riches for founder Morris Dees and his associates. Its last tax return (2005) showed it took in nearly $111 million in donations the previous four years alone and reported assets of $189.4 million at the end of 2005.
Its business is fundraising, and its success at raking in the cash is based on its ability to sell gullible people on the idea that present-day America is awash in white racism and anti-Semitism, which it will fight tooth-and-nail as the public interest law firm it purports to be. That might lead a skeptic to wonder why it spends little on litigation and why Mr. Dees pockets a lot of money sent in by panicked donors who buy into the smear campaigns against organizations or prominent individuals who question racial preference programs.
To me and to other observant conservatives, the Southern Poverty Law Center is a clever scam, relentlessly cultivating for profit the fear that this nation is filled with Klansmen and rife with people eager to perpetrate genocide. If you're curious about this organization and its legitimacy, spend some time on the Internet and assess it for yourself, because I want to move on to something else related to the comment by Mr. Potok. He mentions cross-burnings on the lawns of interracial couples. If this is true, shame on those who do such things, but what you probably don't know about - and what the law center ignores - is the atrocity committed on an interracial couple in Winchester, Calif.: Marine Sgt. Jan Pawel Pietrzak, a Polish immigrant, and his African-American bride of two months, Quiana Jenkins Pietrzak. Four African-American Marines, two of them under Sergeant Pietrzak's command (including Emrys Justin John, 18, of Baltimore), are accused of breaking into the couple's home and killing them both (one is also charged with a sex crime). In the weeks since the brutal murders, the media have been largely silent about the grisly incident. Would that be the case had the alleged perpetrators been white? Don't be silly.
Why does a racist, anti-White hate group like the SPLC fool so many good people??
Hate Crimes are B.S. anyway,You do a crime,you should be punished for the crime..
Not the motivation behind it. You cant charge someone because of "Thought"

Well, actually, we already do take "thought" into account. It's known as "intent"....
If I hit you without intention to do so, my punishment will be a lot different than if I intentionally do it.
Unless your averse to punishing the "why".... but even then, we treat crimes of passion differently than in "cold blood," etc.
By taking pro bono cases that few others would pursue, Morris Dees and Joseph J. Levin, Jr. helped implement the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Some of their early lawsuits resulted in the desegregation of recreational facilities, the reapportionment of the Alabama legislature and the integration of the Alabama State Troopers.

SPLC attorneys developed strategies to hold white supremacist leaders accountable for their followers' violence. Suing for monetary damages for victims of Klan violence, the Southern Poverty Law Center was able to bankrupt several major Klan organizations and to draw national attention to the growing threat of white supremacist activity.
SPLC civil suits would eventually result in judgments against 46 individuals and nine major white supremacist organizations for their roles in hate crimes. Multimillion-dollar judgments against the United Klans of America and the neo-Nazi Aryan Nations effectively put those organizations out of business. Other suits halted harassment of Vietnamese fishermen in Texas by the Knights of the KKK and paramilitary training by the White Patriot Party in North Carolina.
On this map you'll see that black separatist groups are listed as hate groups - the SPLC doesn't focus only on white racist groups. SPLCenter.org: Hate Groups Map
It still strikes me as we dont like this persons thoughts and viewpoints add another..
2 years to the sentence.We dont need extra laws regarding this...
How often is a hate crime law used when Whites are the victim?

That doesn't fool anyone, that's there as "false-flag" propaganda. The SPLC is an anti-White racist hate group, in similar vein to the Jewish ADL -- which also lists a Jewish hate group or two on its website to throw off the morons who fall for it.
Both groups are anti-White racist hate orgs, pure and simple. I don't know what it would possibly take for the ADL to stand up to anti-White hate or defamation or attacks against Whites or Christians anywhere in the world.
Hollywood jews defame Christianity just about weekly or nightly in movie or TV scripts, with not a peep out of the so-called anti-"defamation" crowd.

I agree. Even if someone says why they did something, who ever really knows?
