Southern Poverty Law Center in a Credibility Crisis
Here is another reason for them not to be taken seriously: They say groups like Jihad Watch are hate groups:

There is a silver lining. The moment a person cites the SPLC for something you know they should not be taken seriously.

The moment someone attempts to discredit a civil rights organization for rightly identifying extremist groups, he has destroyed his own credibility:

The Southern Poverty Law Center is the premiere organization monitoring extremist groups in the United States, and its work is considered reliable by law enforcement agencies and the FBI.In fact, SPLC began as a small, Southern law firm. It was founded during the Civil Rights Movement by a lawyer who is Baptist, and another who is Jewish. They began monitoring the activities of the Ku Klux Klan, because no other agency was doing so.
Since that time, SPLC has expanded its mission to monitoring all extremist groups in the United States, and is now partnered with the FBI.
More recently, conservatives groups who disagree with their hate group designation have tried to discredit the SPLC, and they, and anyone who sides with right wing extremists over a renowned civil rights organization, can rightly go **** themselves.

Were you drunk when you made this post?
