RE: Couldn’t that SPLC precedent be used against the SPLC itself for that guy who tried to shoot up the FRC?

Yes it could. Seriously. Just have to convince a jury. IMO.

Even if you don’t convince a jury, you’ve still forced SPLC to expend time, money and personnel to defend itself.

Which is one of the lawfare tactics the Left routinely uses against Conservatives.
