WOW. This is gooooood.

 

Update on the 60 Separate Defamation Lawsuits Against the SPLC Under Consideration

By Tyler O'Neil August 14, 2018

 

Leaders of Christian organizations the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) unfairly labels as "hate groups" told PJ Media that a massive legal onslaught is headed toward the SPLC — and it could involve as many as sixty separate lawsuits in different states around the country. Rather than one big defamation lawsuit, the left-wing attack dog will face a scattershot approach.

 

"What we're considering is not a class-action lawsuit," Mat Staver, founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel, a Christian nonprofit branded a "hate group" by the SPLC and currently suing the charity navigation site GuideStar, told PJ Media on Monday. "These are individual lawsuits that we're looking at, not class action."

 

He explained that the roughly 60 organizations considering the suit intend to "make the SPLC defend itself all over the country."
