The Incredible Hypocrisy of the Southern Poverty Law Center

I've again seen the nonsense that most terrorism in the United States is by right wing organizations. No matter where you find that expressed, the source is almost always the same, the Southern Poverty Law Center. What is Poverty Law anyway? It has authored a list of these so called right wing terrorist attacks. Here is what is really on the list: Common crimes by bigots who are not Republicans. The same is true for the execrable study by the New America Foundation and Syracuse University’s Maxwell School, which Ben Shapiro debunks well here.

If we were to ascertain the political beliefs or political affiliation of common criminals, I believe the overwhelming majority of those perpetrators would be Democrats, liberals and progressives. The FBI doesn't collect those statistics, but does anyone really doubt my belief? We could engage in analysis if you do doubt it. We could limit it to murderers, if you want a crime to analyze for political affiliation of the perpetrator.

All the Presidential assassins and attempted assassins were Democrats or on the left. How about recent mass murderers (more than 4 killed one episode of slaughter)?

Let's see this incomplete list:

In 1984 James Hubert, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 22 people in a McDonalds restaurant.
In 1986 Patrick Sherrill, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 15 people in an Oklahoma post office.
In 1990 James Pough, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 10 people at a GMAC office.
In 1991 George Hennard, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 23 people in a Luby’s cafeteria.
In 1993 Colin Ferguson, bigoted Democrat, shot 25 and killed 6 on a Long Island Rail Road car in Garden City, NY.
In 1995 James Daniel Simpson, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 5 coworkers in a Texas laboratory.
In 1999 Larry Asbrook, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 8 people at a church service.
In 2003 Douglas Williams, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 7 people at a Lockheed Martin plant.
In 2010 a mentally ill registered Democrat named Jared Lee Loughner, shot Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and killed 6 others.
In 2011 a registered Democrat named James Holmes, went into a movie theater and shot and killed 12 people.
In 2012 Andrew Engeldinger, a disgruntled Democrat, shot and killed 7 people in Minneapolis.
In December, 2013 a registered Democrat named Adam Lanza, shot and killed 26 people, mostly children, in a school.
In Sept 2013, an angry Democrat shot 12 at a Navy ship yard.
Last week, a lefty geek knifed 3 and shot another 3 to death in Santa Barbara.

Now there are actual bomb throwers and arsonists on the left--the list is very long (and includes the Unabomber, the ELF, Earth First, not to mention the Weather Underground). Are any of these actions or organizations listed on the SPLC wall of shame? No. Not even one.

What's up with that?

Even the lefty-led FBI appears to have severed its ties to the SPLC.

I think it's time we just ignored SPLC's one sided invitations to join its two minute hate all day everyday.
