The Southern Poverty Law Center is a tax-exempt charity, (501) C (3), and they continue to violate the IRS code that states charities can not engage politically in a way that decreases the electability of certain candidates. Their Spring 2010 Intelligence Report (http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/intelligence-report/browse-all-issues/2010/spring/active-patriot-groups-in-the-united-s) lists who they think are bad political parties and political groups..basically a lot of patriotic groups, and would have a negative impact on candidates affiliated with those groups. We patriots should complain to our representative and the IRS that the SPLC is violating the tax code and should have their tax-exempt status removed. Then we should boycott their list of donors (listed below) who got to take a nice, big tax deduction for their donation to a group that attacks our patriotism. Then we can tell their donors we are going to boycott them. This is a direct way we can have an impact and END THE TAX EXEMPT STATUS OF THE SPLC!
According to DiscoverTheNetworks.org "between 2001 and 2004, SPLC was the recipient of 59 foundation grants totaling $3,326,425. The donors included: the Arcus Foundation; the Baltimore Community Foundation; the Cisco Systems Foundation; the Cleveland Foundation, the Naomi and Nehemiah Cohen Foundation; the Columbus Foundation and Affiliated Organizations; the Community Foundation for Southeastern Michigan; the Community Foundation for the National Capital Region; Community Foundation (Silicon Valley); the Cushman Family Foundation; the Dibner Fund; the Joseph and Bessie Feinberg Foundation; the Ford Foundation; the Edward and Verna Gerbic Family Foundation; the Jackson and Irene Golden 1989 Charitable Trust; the Lisa and Douglas Goldman Fund; the Grove Foundation; the J.M. Kaplan Fund; the J.P Morgan Chase Foundation; the Kaplen Foundation; the Open Society Institute; the Albert Parvin Foundation; the Picower Foundation; the Jay Pritzker Foundation; the Louis and Harold Price Foundation; the Public Welfare Foundation; the Raine and Stanley Silverstein Family Foundation; the Spiegel Foundation; the State Street Foundation; the Steinberg Charitable Trust; and the Vanguard Public Foundation."
