About 60 organizations considering suing SPLC
No fewer than 60 organizations branded "hate groups" or otherwise attacked by the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) are considering legal action against the left-wing smear factory, a Christian legal nonprofit leader confirmed to PJ Media on Tuesday. He suggested that the $3 million settlement and apology the SPLC gave to Maajid Nawaz and his Quiliam Foundation on Monday would encourage further legal action.

"We haven't filed anything against the SPLC, but I think a number of organizations have been considering filing lawsuits against the SPLC, because they have been doing to a lot of organizations exactly what they did to Maajid Nawaz that's part of the settlement," Mat Staver, founder and chairman of Liberty Counsel, told PJ Media on Tuesday.

#4 The settlement with the Quiliam foundation was much larger than I thought it would be. I think it is possible that at least one or two SPLC people were willing to testify at trial and give explosive testimony.

#5 I'm O.K. with the schadenfreude, now I need to work on the guilty feelings. O.K., I'm done with the guilt. Whew, that was easier than I thought.
