, 02:05, September 4, 2017→SPLC attacks on conservatives: Add.
In 2010, the SPLC created a list entitled "Meet the Patriots", which included such people such as [[Chuck Baldwin]], [[Orly Taitz]], and [[Alex Jones]] as supporters of this "patriot movement".<ref>http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/intelligence-report/browse-all-issues/2010/summer/meet-the-patriots?page=0,0</ref> A supplement entitled "The Enablers" was also released, which included [[Michele Bachmann]], [[Glenn Beck]], [[Ron Paul]], and [[Judge Napolitano]].<ref>http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/intelligence-report/browse-all-issues/2010/summer/meet-the-patriots/the-enablers</ref>

In 2012, the SPLC found four individuals to file a lawsuit against a group providing therapy to homosexual men in order to help them become [[ex-homosexuals]].<ref>http://usnews.nbcnews.com/_news/2012/11/27/15486181-four-men-sue-new-jersey-organization-over-gay-conversion-therapy?lite</ref> The SPLC alleges the group violated New Jersey's Consumer Fraud Law in advertising that conversion therapy will help people become ex-homosexuals. Instead of being a pro-consumer lawsuit, as the SLPC implies, the suit is a collateral attack on conversion therapy, and the free exercise of religion.

All of the incidents listed above further prove the SPLC is a left-wing political organization, as well as itself being a hate group, rather than one focused on racism and civil rights.
In 2017, the SPLC labeled the [[Alliance Defending Freedom]] a "hate group,"<ref>Richardson, Valerie (July 16, 2017).

All of the incidents listed above further prove the SPLC is a left-wing political organization, as well as itself being a hate group, rather than one focused on racism and civil rights. Despite labeling numerous mainstream conservative organizations as "hate groups", the SPLC has refused to label Antifa a hate group.<ref>Nelson, Steve (September 3, 2017).
