Pete King, Chairman of the House Homeland Security subcommittee on Counterterrorism and Security. The petition demands an immediate investigation into the activities of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC).<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s urgent that he hear from you today.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The reason: The Southern Poverty Law Center is working directly with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to silence the growing freedom movement.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>You may recall that a couple of years ago the Southern Poverty Law Center helped write a report for the Missouri Fusion Center (MIAC) labeling (among other things) anyone who voted for Ron Paul to be a potential terrorist.<\/p>\n<p>That report was followed by another report called the \u201cDomestic Extremism Lexicon,\u201d issued by the Department of Homeland Security, that said supporters of any of the following views are \u201cpotential terrorists\u201d:<\/p>\n<p>Opposition to NAFTA<br \/>\nOpposition to the UN<br \/>\nAnti-abortion<br \/>\nBelieve in the End Times<br \/>\nOppose same sex marriage<br \/>\nOppose sending US jobs overseas<br \/>\nExpress antagonism toward the Obama Administration<br \/>\nAnd much more&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>This report targeted you! And it also was written with help from the Southern Poverty Law Center for the government.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Now the Southern Poverty Law Center has issued a new report targeting me, Tom DeWeese, and the American Policy Center, the <strong>Tea Party Movement<\/strong>, and many more \u2013 calling us racists \u2013 connected to radical, anti-government militias and &#8220;white supremacists&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Obviously those charges are not true \u2013 but the Southern Poverty Law Center is working directly with the Department of Homeland Security to push for a government effort to suppress our movement.<\/p>\n<p>Worse, the SPLC runs the <strong>Federal Law Enforcement Training Center<\/strong> and it is one of the most visible links between the Department of Homeland Security and the Southern Poverty Law Center. Law enforcement agencies send their personnel to be trained by SPLC instructors. They are trained to watch for potential terrorists \u2013 like you and me!<\/p>\n<p><strong>In fact, this is one reason why early reporting of the Boston Marathon bombing hinted that it was done by &#8220;right wingers&#8221;.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One reporter, David Sirota, said, \u201cIf you care about everything from stopping war to reducing the defense budget, to protecting civil liberties, to passing immigration reform, you should hope the bomber was a white domestic terrorist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That rhetoric is straight from the Southern Poverty Law Center propaganda against Conservatives.<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s why there was a deadly attack at the Family Research Council last year. They were targeted by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a dangerous hate group because they oppose abortions.<br \/>\n<strong><br \/>\nClearly, the Southern Poverty Law Center is dangerous to freedom.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why it\u2019s urgent that we demand Congressional investigation into the activities of the Southern Poverty Law Center and its attempts to crush our right to speak out. <strong>They receive federal funds \u2013 just like ACORN \u2013 and they are much more dangerous.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Against great criticism by liberals, Chairman King has led his House Homeland Security committee in hearings to study and expose the growing threat of radical Muslims He\u2019s not afraid of charges of political correctness and profiling \u2013 and I believe he will give you and me a fair hearing against the SPLC threat.<\/p>\n<p>If he receives enough demands for a hearing \u2013 I\u2019m sure he will do it. You and I must force those hearings \u2013 our freedom depends on it!<\/p>\n<p>The American Policy Center (APC) must stand up against these tyrants and I need your immediate help to stop them.<\/p>\n<p>Just recently the SPLC issued a new report entitled \u201cThe Year in Hate and Extremism.\u201d The article listed several conservative leaders as examples of hate, including <strong>Senator Rand Paul<\/strong>, Congressman Trey Radel, former Arizona Sheriff Richard Mack, the <strong>Oath Keepers<\/strong>, and my friends Pastor Chuck Baldwin, and former Arizona Sheriff Richard Mack,, to name a few.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In addition, the SPLC charges that anyone who opposes the UN\u2019s Agenda 21 is also part of the \u201cradical right.\u201d And they have named me specifically in that charge.<\/strong> [Note also that our good friend Rosa Koire is suing Plan Bay Area&#8217;s Agenda 21 and she is a liberal Democrat. She too has been targeted by SPLC.]<\/p>\n<p>Please sign and return to me your petition to Chairman King today. I will personally deliver yours, along with thousands more, directly to him.<\/p>\n<p>And it\u2019s also URGENT that you help APC with a contribution of $ $25 or $50 so that we can recruit thousands of activists across the country to expose and fight the Southern Poverty Law Center and stop their assault on our liberty.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The SPLC is a dangerous group, guilty of the hate it claims to fight. It is trying to take away the Constitutional rights of Americans who opposing views.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And the SPLC seeks to destroy any debate or opposition to its ideas.<\/p>\n<p>That wouldn\u2019t be a threat to you and me, except for the fact that the SPLC is so closely tied to one of the federal government\u2019s most powerful (and in my opinion) dangerous agencies \u2013 Homeland Security (DHS).<\/p>\n<p>And that\u2019s why Congress must investigate those ties and influence SPLC has over government policy.<\/p>\n<p>Please sign the <a href=\"https:\/\/americanpolicy.wufoo.com\/forms\/petition-to-house-of-representatives\/\">petition<\/a>.
