    their kids must be proud.

    Moms for Liberty | Southern Poverty Law Center (splcenter.org)

    now before you go rambling' on about free speech and "whose children are they?"

    they are probably NOT the children of the 11 "moms for liberty" who complained about thousands of books in hundreds of florida schools.

    and when did terrorist threats become a "free speech" issue. .....

    "If I had any mental issues, they would have been plowed down with a gun by now."
    — Melissa “Missy” Bosch (Lonoke County, AR Chapter) was indicted for terroristic threatening towards the faculty and staff of Cabot School district. She was recorded musing about gunning down a school librarian.


    the splc is exactly right for listing these racist homophobic "moms" to their list.

    Just like Trump, they are seeking to fund raise off their disgrace. Banking on the fact there are a lot of depraved people out there.

    Moms For Liberty Co-Founders Use SPLC Naming Them An ‘Extremist Group’ As An Excuse To Raise Money

    Two of the co-founders of the ultra-conservative “parental rights” organization Moms For Liberty appeared on Facebook Wednesday to fire back — and solicit donations — after the Southern Poverty Law Center named them an “extremist group” in its annual report.

    “We say, stick it to Southern Poverty Law Center and donate to us,” Tina Descovich declared on the broadcast. “Show that we don’t care what they think.”

    Descovich’s fellow “Moms For Liberty” co-founder, Tiffany Justice, then informed listeners that an unnamed donor offered to match contributions on Wednesday up to $300,000.

    “Yeah, people are fired up with Southern Poverty Law Center going after moms,” Descovich said. “I think we just passed the $30,000 mark on donations. … We’ll take any size donation.”

    I don't think anybody should complain about freedom of speech. Mom's for Liberty were appropriately listed as a hate group but they have a right to spur hate speech. What is most shameful is that education authorities in the state cater to their homophobic and bigoted agenda. I would, however, consider their book banning activities, which include threatening lawsuits and harassing teachers who are just trying to educate children (I'm not sure, but I think this is one of the sources of the "teachers are pedophiles" narrative in this forum), a form of terrorism.

    I remember when the term "Terrorist Group" meant a group that is a threat to kill and maim in order to achieve their political aims.

    SPLC has rendered this term meaningless.

    When the SPLC does stuff like this, I'd say they are a hate group.

    Is this the same SPLC that was accused of racism, sexism and discrimination by its employees?

    Yep, they're the ones. As a one-time supporter I've long since given up on that clown car. It's true that any organizarion that isn't explicitly conservative eventually becomes hopelessly hard left.

    these "MOMS" are threatening to do just that.

    "terrorist" was rendered meaningless by the bush era propagandist who labeled ever band of freedom fighters as terrorists.

    I don't believe that anybody honestly believes they pose any danger of physical violence whatsoever.

    If you are going to make that assertion, you have to have SOMETHING to point to in order to draw that conclusion. What do you point to that leads you to that conclusion? What threat have they made?

    You mean when you quoted the following....""If I had any mental issues, they would have been plowed down with a gun by now."?

    Who is that threatening? How is that threatening anyone?

    Its an odd statement for sure, but its not a threat. If anything, it is saying she is not a threat because she is saying she does not have mental issues. Even if it were a threat, she certainly is not speaking for the group. At most even IF you are going to twist logic and successfully label that as a threat, that is a criminal act. It in no way means a group she is a part of is therefore a terrorist group.It would be one thing if you had a group edict issuing threats, as far as I know there is no such thing.

    nearly everyone that reads that quote agrees that the woman has mental issues. garland had ample reason to protect the school boards, plenty of them, that werethreatened by people like this.

    Lets say for a minute that the people that say she has mental issue are 100% correct. I know nothing about her so I cannot comment one way or the other.

    But even if we say she is mental, she is clearly saying that she is not mental. Her statement is therefore not issuing a threat because she does not see herself as mental. You are trying to rationalize that she is saying if she were mental she would shoot, and that since despite her claims she really is mental, therefore that means she is threatening to shoot and that is not how that works. The only thing that is relevant in regards to whether that is a threat is whether she thinks she is crazy, and clearly she does not think that.

    On top of that her statement was in past tense, not for a future action. It seems to me for something to be a threat it would not be in the past tense. If a person were to say, "if I had been there, I would have kicked your a**", is NOT a threat. For it to be a threat, it would have to be looking forward such as "next time I see you I am going to kick your a**"

    The hate group label probably fits.

    Calling them a terrorist group though does devalue the term as FAW pointed out earlier.

    When are Americans going to come to their senses and realize that EVERYONE that disagrees with the liberal progressive agenda is a terrorist? It's so simple! The rule is "agree with us or you're a terrorist". how can we get any more simple than that but Americans STILL just don't get it. SMH.

    Hail to the Brave Parents Who’ve Had Enough of the Sexualization of Children.

    'Contrary to popular belief, not everyone in this country is meekly submitting to the sexual grooming and indoctrination of schoolchildren. Yesterday in Glendale, CA,'

    'A very similar incident took place last October, when Muslim parents expressed their outrage at and vociferously condemned Dearborn school board officials for including books in school libraries that promote sexual deviancy (masquerading under euphemisms such as “pride,” “inclusivity,” etc.).'

    'And yet, what the Armenians did yesterday—not just shout down but engage in an all-out brawl in defense of their children—was even more dramatic.'

    'Glendale’s Armenians, having survived a few genocides, they have few qualms about being “confrontational” where their children are concerned.'

    'Standing up against those who are openly trying to sexualize and mutilate children is based on common sense, decency, and, above all, courage.'

    Zero tolerance 'for those who are openly grooming their children. Kudos to the men and women from Glendale to Dearborn who have simply had enough.'

    Few care about the divisive haters of the SPLC.

    SPLC IS A GROUP OF GRIFTERS AND DIVISIVE HATERS. Too much of the Left want to criminalize political disagreement.

    'Moms for Liberty' convention wraps up with a touching send off.

    MAYBE YOU CAN GET DIRBAG MERRICK AND THE CORRUPT FBI TO SPY ON THEM AND ABUSE THEM FOR SPEAKING UP IN DISAGREEMENT WITH THE LEFT'S POINT OF VIEW.

    [​IMG]

    'Over the last few days, Moms for Liberty hosted a national conference in Philadephia.The group works tirelessly to protect children in America's school and ensure election of quality School Board candidates, With that work, enemies and protestors will follow. They even faced groups attempting to get their event cancelled before it even began.'

    Of course, too much of the Left can't sensibly articulate a convincing argument so theY rely on hate lists and cancelling to avoid the free and open exchange of ideas

    'Moms for Liberty are absolutely not a hate group & attempt to shut them down is due to their effectiveness. But how is it not a violation of their First Amendment rights that elected officials are trying to get their event canceled? How is this not government shutting down speech?'

    MAMA BEARS

    'Byron Donalds SLAMS 'hate group' smear campaign against Moms for Liberty in FIERY speech: “There is no earthly force more powerful than the love of a mother for her children”.'
    [​IMG]

    '“When enough Moms and Dads understand what’s happening to our kids, we are going to stop this child abuse.”'

    GROOMER EDU THUGS BRING THE HATE

    'Indeed, this is why there is such resistance to this group. They shine the bright light of truth on the darkness some were bringing in to America's schools.'

    'The Left's predation & indoctrination of America's children awoke a sleeping giant unlike anything they could have imagined.'

    '“Moms for liberty is the national conversation because Mothers will stop a revolution if it means protecting their kids.”'

    'There is no fear or false indoctrination able to stop a group of dedicated women.'

    '“There is no magic force field built around your children. You are the force field.”'

    do these misguided mothers love their own children as much as they love trump?

    not likely.
