What? Want a PM with my brother's obituary? How about the name of the hospice group that turned him down? Did you even read the link about what happened to the AIDS patient at Mobile Infirmary? Want to try to call up the only provider of HIV/AIDS care in Mobile and tell them you've been referred by the major hospital in town (probably the only hospital that will treat Gay persons) and need to get treatment immediately and see how long it takes?
BTW, dealing with my brother's death was why I was out of here all July.
Why are they offshoring money? Prepping for those defamation lawsuits?
Haven't lost a lawsuit yet. No idea. Nor do I care so long as they're calling out discrimination that I believe creates an environment that endangers the safety of minorities.
Right, and Ayann Hirsi Ali is an "extremist" and Army bases are "confederate monuments" that must come down. These "hate lists" are nothing more than dog whistles to domestic terrorists like Floyd Lee Corkins.
You're on the wrong side of history, my friend.
Quote:Corkins -- who had chosen the research council as his target after finding it listed as an anti-gay group on the website of the Southern Poverty Law Center -- had planned to stride into the building and open fire on the people inside in an effort to kill as many as possible, he told investigators, according to the court documents.

The Family Research Council was and is a straight-up hate group. They contantly advocate criminalization of Gay persons. Their leader paid David Duke thousands. They spent thousands lobbying against condemnation of Uganda's Kill the Gays Bill. They are linked with the World Congress of Families/Russia. They consistently demonize Gay persons, use discredited science, and scapegoat LGBT persons. They advocate for employment discrimination, housing discrimination, government discrimination, medical care discrimination, public accommodations discrimination, pay discrimination, and educational discrimination against LGBT persons. They are linked with groups that advocate for the denial of freedom of speech, association, press, petition, protest, due process, expression and even religion for LGBT persons.
And there are plenty of people calling the FRC, and everyone linked to it straight up haters, consumed with malevolence against Gay persons. They have justification for doing so. Its unfortunate that some crazy person decided to operate outside the law, but the FRC doesn't get a pass to continue advocating for horrendous discrimination against LGBT persons in response.
Now, please defend the FRC against charges that they are a hate group.

Here's the reason why Ms Ali is on the list.
https://www.splcenter.org/20161025/journ...emists#ali Appears to be some pretty ugly statements, against all Muslims. Also wants to basically make the practice of Islam, even by moderates (they do exist) illegal in the West (advocates shutting down all Musllm schools). And the SPLC didn't call her a hate group, but rather an anti-Muslim extremist.
