L’Affare Keegan Hankes: The SPLC Has Graduated from Promoting Other People’s Race Hoaxes to Staging Their Own

On August 24, the League of the South held demonstrations against the demographic dispossession of whites in Uvalda and Vidalia, Georgia. The SPLC staged a race hoax, in which its agent provocateur Keegan Hankes attended the Uvalda demonstration, where he alone spewed racial slurs, and then “reported” that LoS demonstrators were doing this, in order to discredit the organization.

It seems to me that the SPLC can finally be sued in civil court, something that people defamed by it for years have longed to do. Since Keegan Hankes was working for the $PLC, and the organization continued to run his fraudulent article after he was exposed as the hoaxer, but after having in the meantime removed his name as author, the organization appears to me to be guilty of the tort of conspiracy to commit defamation (or at the very least, simple defamation) against everyone who participated in the LoS demonstration in Uvalda, Georgia including Uvalda Police Chief Lewis R. Smith.

Hallelujah!

This is a watershed. As far as I know, no one previously ever had such a strong case for a lawsuit against the SPLC. I suppose the hate/treason organization had gotten drunk over its support from the John Doe calling himself “Barack Obama” and Criminal General Eric Holder, making it feel invulnerable.

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: People who truly have the moral higher ground do not need to lie about their enemies.

 
SPLC Escalates—Uses Agent Provocateur Against Southern Nationalists

[I]n Uvalda, GA ... A small group of members of the League of the South, a Southern nationalist organization modeled on the Italian Lega Nord, demonstrated against mass immigration and what they called the “replacement of the Southern people.” The group took care to make sure its message could not be misinterpreted, upholding a strict dress code, approving signs in advance, and encouraging participation from prominent figures, including the town's police chief, Lewis R. Smith....

Damningly, the Southern Poverty Law Center reported that there were muttered racial slurs throughout the demonstration.

Now, however, it's been revealed that the only racial slurs that were muttered came from the author of the $PLC piece—a mole named Keegan Hankes. According to another demonstrator at the rally, Mr. Hankes expressed his fury about “spooks” and “n*****s” and his pleasure that Chief Smith had “taken care of them.” He also consistently brought up race in conversations, trying to bait other members.

The Southern Poverty Law Center made the fatal mistake of publishing Hankes' piece under his own name, before removing it and replacing it with “Hatewatch Staff.”
