In the 1970s, Morris Dees had the FBI searching for my film director son in Houston, Texas. Son evaded the FBI, then Rice University where he was attending college, got him a lawyer. He had filmed the KKK and Dees wanted that film at his court case against the KKK and the Vietnamese fishermen and local fishermen in Seabrook,Texas.

Son called us during the FBI search for him and wouldn't tell us where he was. He was changing locations every day. Once he had a lawyer, the lawyer went to the judge and told her my son had not finished editing that film and wouldn't give it over until the edit was finished. The judge told Dees and FBI to stop searching and son could finish the editing before turning over the film.

Once that happened, son was on witness stand with Dees questioning him about that film and the film was shown. At one point, son interrupted the film and told judge what was just shown was NOT in his film. Dees had interjected other film of KKK into son's film. Judge told off Dees for doing that and told jury to disregard that part of the film.

There is NO love between son and Dees or me and Dees. There is more to that story between son and Dees but I've told you the basic story.

Dees is a piece of trash, going after conservative groups and listing them as hate groups.

I’m more inclined to be a fan of Morris Day and the Time.

Wow..what a story.

Dees is a duplicitous piece of garbage.

I have no use for The Southern Poverty Organization, or Dees. I really don’t understand all the angst about Confederate symbols etc.

The world has lots of problems that need to be addressed, and taking down a confederate flag, or removing a statue does nothing to solve problems, or achieve anything of significance.

The civil war was part of our history. They had a flag, and soldiers, and officers etc. So all the whiners, just need to get over it. These people are just all a bunch of nutty, little snot bag whiners - they need to keep their noses out of other people’s business.

I never ever thought of the confederate flag as a symbol of racism, and was totally gob smacked to hear all the complaints about it.
