Maybe we should advocate for more hate groups if the result is fewer hate crimes.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, the whole thing can be explained when we realize that SPLC has expanded it&#8217;s definition of hate groups rather than an actual growth of hate groups. Any group that opposes illegal immigration is a right wing hate group, no matter how innocuous their opposition. SPLC has also included the Black Panthers in their right wing hate group list- each local branch is a separate hate group. Of course, you won&#8217;t hear SPLC announce that hate crimes are on the decline&#8230;that would affect their fund raising activities, so they engage in fear-mongering.
