Hrm.
From their own Twitter bio, “The Southern Poverty Law Center combats hate, intolerance, and discrimination through education and litigation.”
This thread of tweets regarding bomb-threat suspect Juan Thompson seems a bit odd … aren’t they supposed to fight against hate?
Thompson’s motivation seems to have been to implicate a former girlfriend in the JCC threats, not necessarily anti-Semitism as such pic.twitter.com/tw1dX74vGi

So because Thompson’s motivation was possibly to implicate a girlfriend that means it stops being anti-Semitic? Explain this one to us, SPLC. He could have called a bomb threat into any establishment and blamed her, and he chose Jewish Community Centers.
But by all means, keep spinning.
In 8 instances, Thompson seems to have been opportunistically copycatting the horrific JCC bomb threats. This doesn’t explain the other 92.

Why is the SPLC deflecting from what Thompson may have done? Anti-Semitism is anti-Semitism, that doesn’t change these eight instances.
Thompson "is not believed to be the main suspect behind the rash of bomb threats, according to law enforcement” https://t.co/Q00OLcu3o4

So since he only is suspected in eight instances of anti-Semitic bomb threats that makes it somehow ok?
Does the SPLC get paid for this nonsense?
Thompson appears culpable in a small fraction of the JCC threats, but this is not case closed and it’s imperative we continue to #ReportHate

Uh huh. In other words, the SPLC didn’t get the suspect they wanted (namely an evil, white, straight, male Trump supporter) so they will write this one off as a jilted ex thing.
Typical.
