The shooting at the Family Research Council’s headquarters in Washington, D.C. was the result of the liberal Southern Poverty Law Center stoking the flames by labeling the conservative Christian organization as a hate group, the group’s president Tony Perkins told reporters Thursday.

The suspect, 28-year-old Floyd Corkins of Virginia, was charged with assault with intent to kill after he allegedly shouted “I don’t like your politics” and shot an unarmed guard in the arm. Investigators found ammunition and 15 Chick-fil-A sandwiches in the suspect’s backpack, according to the Associated Press.

In late 2010, the Southern Poverty Law Center labeled the Family Research Council, which opposes gay marriage and abortion, as a “hate group” because of its positions on gay issues and its general religious condemnation of same-sex behavior. It placed the group in the same company as the Aryan Nations, Nation of Islam and KKK.

That is just BS, even if it is nice to turn the rhetoric back on those idiots at SPLC.
 
Perhaps us normal folks on the right should start an advocacy group to countter the southern poverty law centers constant stream of bullshit. We can demonize the congressional black caucus, pflag, and planned parenthood as terrorist groups. Really get the propaganda out. Might actually do a lot of good.
 
To democrats, the gay activist was a freedom fighter and the family center wrong and deserving for being a family center to begin with.

There is little, very little, difference in the philosophy between this shooter and the man berating the girl who works for Chick Fil A.
