The Alabama-based Southern Poverty Law Center, a nationally known nonprofit that monitors hate organizations, said Thursday it had fired co-founder Morris Dees, who once won a lawsuit that bankrupted a leading Ku Klux Klan group.
A statement by Richard Cohen, the president of the law center, said Dees' employment had been terminated, but it did not give a specific reason.
"As a civil rights organization, the SPLC is committed to ensuring that the conduct of our staff reflects the mission of the organization and the values we hope to instill in the world. When one of our own fails to meet those standards, no matter his or her role in the organization, we take it seriously and must take appropriate action," it said.

I hear Woody Allen is going to do the movie version of the story.

Crazy song. I still have a good 70’s disco collection. The subject at hand (Morris Dees) might be doing the ‘drop the soap disco’ in the slammer real soon. Although given his age and all the protection he will get from leftie pollies and the grievance industry I doubt he wouod do time even if he was up to no good

Louis Farrakhan will replace him.

I plan to buy 25 cases of beer and a pup tent, and stay there a while. And I hope they bury Mark Potok next to him. I would ignore Morris Dees’ grave completely for the chance to water the flowers on Potok’s last resting place.
