Conservatives call for corporate America to cut ties with 'discredited' SPLC

[Free Vulcan]

A coalition of 45 prominent conservative groups and figures called Wednesday on those partnering with the Southern Poverty Law Center to sever their ties, saying the center’s credibility has been further eroded by this week’s defamation settlement.

In a joint statement, organizations targeted by the SPLC as “extremists” or “hate groups” cited the center’s apology and $3.375 million payment to the Quilliam Foundation and founder Maajid Nawaz for including them in a 2016 guide to “anti-Muslim extremists.”

The settlement announced Monday comes as “tangible proof that the SPLC, which amounts to little more than a leftist instrument of political warfare against those with whom it disagrees, fully deserves the infamy which it has lately earned,” said the statement.

Anyone familiar to this forum knows how I regard muslims, but more power to this Nawaz guy.

He has shown that SPLC can be beaten.
Expect more lawsuits in a similar vein.

Enough of them, and perhaps SPLC will wither away.
