SPLC Designates AFA, FRC, IFI as Hate Groups

Wingnuts • November 2010 • Views: 2,861

They richly deserve it.

The Southern Poverty Law Center today updated its list of designated hate groups, and this year is significant in that some of the larger anti-gay outfits have made the cut. After a litany of ever more extreme statements from people such as Peter Sprigg and Tony Perkins of the FRC, Bryan Fischer of the AFA and Laurie Higgins of the IFI, the SPLC has determined, correctly in our view, that these groups all deserve to be designated as having gone beyond mere advocacy, and into full-blown hatred against the LGBT community. Especially after the recent spate of gay teen suicides elicited no remorse from any of these institutions, they have indeed earned their place in the halls of hate.

1. Abiding Truth Ministries [Scott Lively]
2. American Family Association
3. Americans for Truth About Homosexuality [Peter LaBarbera]
4. American Vision
5. Chalcedon [RJ Rushdoony] Foundation
6. Dove World Outreach Center [Terry Jones]
7. Faithful Word Baptist Church [Steven Anderson]
8. Family Research Council
9. Family Research Institute [Paul Cameron]
10. Heterosexuals Organized for a Moral Environment
11. Illinois Family Institute
12. MassResistance
13. Traditional Values Coalition

American, Truth, Family, Values, Moral, Traditional, etc. All integral to hate groups, and used often. What's missing is Heritage and Heartland, which are two others. These people are half a goosestep away from klukkers. Uberdouches. Bonus points if people can name the GOP politicians and teabaggers that support them and attend their functions. (Hint: try "All".)

re: #3 theheat

Downding for "all" . Most would be acceptable, but Lisa Murkowski and others do not fit that narrow view. Indeed, Lisa's been kicking ass on some of the people you are talking about recently (Demint, Palin, etc.)

re: #4 Thanos

You mean like this Senator Lisa Murkowski Praises Anti-LGBT Pastor After Refusing To Go To Pride Conference In Alaska? Sounds pretty supportive of the American Families for a Heritage of Gay Bashing to me. Am I missing something?

Typical conservative buzzwords.

Sheesh! There's a spoof - I think - site called Society of Christians for the Restoration of Old Testament Morality, and they're for stuff like stoning everyone, etc. Then I looked at the info on the Chalcedon Foundation. The Apocalypse is truly on us when reality outruns the most outrageous satire. We literally can no longer dream up anything as bizarre as the nutbar right wing does for real.
