"Whoa! With all due respect, Riginslinger, the SPLC has a long history of advocacy for victims of racial bias, i.e. hate crimes."


                  I agree that sometimes they seem to be on the right side of history, but I would rank Morris Dees right up there with Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. They're really in it for the self aggrandizement it brings to themselves. Considerations for victims definitely takes a back seat with these people.

                  Just my opinion.

                  I think the kids would be better off with good stable legal representation, that moves forward with the defendant's interests at the center of their focus.
