MGM to match employee donations to civil rights groups

LAS VEGAS (AP) - One of the largest employers in Nevada is launching a
donation match program benefiting civil rights organizations in light of
the deadly Charlottesville protests.

*MGM Resorts International, the largest casino operator on the Las Vegas
Strip, said Friday that it would match employee donations made to the
Southern Poverty Law Center, NAACP, Anti-Defamation League, Human Rights
Campaign, Council on American Islamic Relations, OCA National-Asian Pacific
American Advocates and League of United Latin American Citizens.*

CEO Jim Murren made the announcement in a letter, saying he felt compelled
to speak out against "the degradation of basic human dignity" following the
deadly attacks in Charlottesville and Barcelona in recent days.

He said the company champions diversity and inclusion. Murren said MGM
believes in free speech but that it would not tolerate hate.

MGM Resorts International owns the following resort properties:  Bellagio,
Beau Rivage, Circus Circus, Delano, Excalibur, Luxor, Mandalay Bay Resort,
MGM Grand, Mirage, Monte Carlo, New York New York, The Signature and Vdara
Hotel & Spa.

   - One of MGM Resort's partners is located in a country that declared
   CAIR a terrorist organization.  MGM Resorts is in a 50-50 partnership with
   Dubai World.  Dubai is one of seven emirates that makes up the United Arab
   Emirates country.  The United Arab Emirates' ministerial cabinet listed

   the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) as one of 83 banned
   terrorist organizations on November 15, 2014.  More info

   because of their support for terrorism.
   - *Omar Ahmad, Chairman and founder of the Council on American Islamic
   Relations, told a Muslim crowd
   <http://mail.floridafamily.org/iem_615/link.php?M=70991&N=354&L=18&F=H>
   "Islam isn't in America to be equal to any other faiths, but to become
   dominant. The Koran, the Muslim book of scripture, should be the highest
   authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth."   *

*Southern Poverty Law Center.*





















*•    The Southern Poverty Law Center's (SPLC) wrongful labeling of some
conservative organizations as hate groups unjustly harms reputations,
threatens public safety and brands their followers as hate people.  Some of
the organizations the SPLC wrongfully lists as hate groups include D. James
Kennedy Ministries, Family Research Council, Liberty Counsel and American
Family Association.  The Southern Poverty Law Center wrongfully lists many
more conservative organizations as hate groups.  Millions of Americans
belong to and support these organizations.•    In 2012, the Southern
Poverty Law Center's "hate catalogue made headlines in 2012 when a domestic
terrorist who carried out a politically-motivated shooting at a Christian
organization, the Family Research Council (FRC), admitted he got his target
list from the SPLC."  Source Judicial Watch

On August 15, 2012 Floyd Lee Corkins II, wielding a 9mm pistol along with
two magazines and 50 rounds of ammunition, entered the lobby of Family
Research Council's Washington, D.C. headquarters.  Corkins shot an
employee, 46-year-old Leonardo Johnson, in the left arm.  While injured,
Johnson assisted others who wrestled the gunman to the ground until police
arrived and placed the gunman under arrest.  During his FBI interview
Corkins was asked how he chose his target. His response was "Southern
Poverty Law lists anti-gay groups. I found them online".  Source Wikipedia

Southern Poverty Law Center.  The Department of Justice used to provide
access to the hate propaganda published online by the Southern Poverty Law
Center.  However, the Department of Justice removed the SPJC as a reference
after more than a dozen conservative organizations complained about the
erroneous labeling and public safety threats that accompany it.   Source

rampage by James T. Hodgkinson who liked the Southern Poverty Law Center's

organization had deemed "hate groups," including the Family Research
Council.  Source SPLC

The Council on American Islamic Relations agenda to normalize Sharia tenets
that are antithetical to the rights afforded by the Constitution of the
United States is a very legitimate concern to tens of millions of
American.  Americans concerned about CAIR's history and agenda should not
be silenced and censored in the name of political correctness and leftist
bias. The Southern Poverty Law Center's name calling and labeling is
offensive and alarming to the millions of Americans who belong to and
support many conservative organizations that are wrongfully listed as hate
groups.  SPLC's list puts these organizations' employees and the people who
support them in a bull's eye target for leftists' hate and possible
violence.  MGM Resorts International certainly has the right to support
whatever organizations it chooses.  You have the same right to express your
disappointment and patronize companies that do not support organizations
that target conservatives with hate labels.Florida Family Association has
