No need to concede any facts here; even if they are in fact true. La la la la la la . . .

Exactly. Don't refute the accusations (they can't) but attack the source, and call those who expose such things.... racists. Shocker, right?

Typical, tired, liberal tactics.

SPLC isn't doing anything illegal with its finances and isn't doing anything that many other non-profits aren't also doing.

The question then is why are you singling SPLC out for this sudden odd scrutiny and feigned outrage?

BOOM. Pssst....they aren't reallllllly non-profits. Hahahahaha. Dummy.

Then apparently Family Research Council, Heritage Foundation, CATO, Heartland Institute and every other right wing are also not "non-profit."
Okay.

Question still remains, "so what's your point?"

Why? Because it doesn't espouse leftist views? Do better.

I'm sorry are any of those "non-profits" called Southern Poverty Law Center and keeping their cash in off-shore accounts when people probably could use the money?

If a U.S. Non-profit is receiving tax preferential treatment, let's bring "non-profit" accounts back to the U.S. I thought certain states were better tax havens now anyway unless something nefarious is going on. Things could have changed since I last researched this. If so, there are definitely better places than Caymans. Lol.

Note

"Dees's legal actions against racial nationalist groups have made him a target of many of these organizations. He has received numerous death threats from some of these groups.[22] In 2007 Dees said that over 30 people had been jailed in connection with plots to either kill Dees or blow up the center.[23] A July 29, 2007, letter allegedly came from Hal Turner, a radio talk show host, paid FBI informant and white supremacist, after the SPLC filed a lawsuit against the Imperial Klans of America (IKA) in Meade County, Kentucky.[23] During the IKA trial a former member of the IKA said that the Klan head told him to kill Dees.[24] Morris Dees and William F. McMurry represented the plaintiff in the trial against the IKA in November 2008.[25"

People, c'mon, they broke the power of the KKK by suing them for damages--back when SPLC was relevant. Now they're just a leftist slander site, so of course they are protecting their assets. I'm not sure they've been relevant since we landed on the moon.

It's OK. They're keeping their vow of poverty in other countries and offshore private banking havens!

You all know the 4th Estate won't run with this story...

Great, you managed to link to a Daily Caller report which reports what Free Beacon reported. The essence of conservative media.

Also the entire "outrage" is over garden variety investment funds which happen to be headquartered in other countries. These investments are reported annually on the 990T.

Meanwhile from the 2016 annual report, the Southern Poverty Law Center invests almost 20 percent ($69 million) of its nearly $320 million endowment fund in offshore equities and other investments.

Nothing fuzzy here people - it's called diversification.

I can't tell whether you are ill informed or trying to spread misinformation. SPLC iis an anti hate group that tracks hate crimes and fosters civil rights. This is on their website vthey are not an anti poverty group.

How the heck did they get that name?
Southern Wealthy Law Center would apparently be more accurate.

FFS this whole thread is insane. THey don't have millions of dollars in offshore bank accounts. If you read their disclosures and believe this, you are financially illiterate.

This organization is a sham, IMO. Question if anyone can answer.......Do they list Antifa as a hate group?

Today, the SPLC is best known for tracking hate groups, which the organization defines as having "beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristic." Currently, the SPLC says 917 hate groups are operating in the United States.

SPLC's "hate map" gained prominence in the media after last month's deadly violence at a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Va. However, critics say the organization has falsely slapped the "hate group" label on non-violent groups who hold traditional beliefs about hot-button issues such as gay marriage and abortion.

Last month, a prominent evangelical ministry based in Florida filed a federal lawsuit accusing the SPLC of defamation after it was labeled an "active hate group." In July, Fox News found that at least seven organizations are listed as hate groups by the SPLC despite explicitly prohibiting violence by their members.

It's been mentioned before on this thread. SPLC did good work in the past. Today, they are just another political action group -but are posing as an anti-hate group. They are very slow to deem any leftist group as hateful.

Once upon a time, they went after group that espoused violence. Now, they go after any group that disagrees with them.

Never mind... I found the answer. They DO NOT list Antifa as a hate group. Shameful.

Not sure why this surprises anyone. They're a leftist organization which means they're all about do as I say, not as I do.
