The FBI hate crimes statistics for 2015 are out, and the establishment propaganda media is using them to create the impression of some massive increase of violent Islamophobia in America:
FBI: Hate crimes spike, most sharply against Muslims CNN
U.S. Hate Crimes Surge 6%, Fueled by Attacks on Muslims New York Times
FBI: Hate Crimes Against Muslims up by 67 Percent in 2015 Associated Press

Today my local paper (The Seattle Times) ran a story about an alleged hate crime committed against some Muslim women by a “Trump supporter.” The article also cited the 2015 increase in anti-Muslim hate crimes, and mentioned the number of crimes as 5,850. That looked WAY off to me, because I know that in most years the figure is between 100 and 200. The article referenced here at FR gives a figure of 257, which is consistent with a 67% increase over 2014, which recorded 178. I don’t know where the Times got its crap statistics from.
The MSM is the Country’s greatest threat.

I think one of the reasons they don't like to mention the twice-as-big number for anti-Jewish hate crimes is that it will lead people to the next logical question... who is committing all these anti-Jewish hate crimes? (uncomfortable answer: probably at least some Muslims involved there.)

6% is a surge? I can’t think of a single instance or occurrence of anything, ever, where 6% is a “surge”

Small changes in small data sets can create misleading statistics. If hate crimes go from 2 a year to 3 a year, you could see a headline saying “Hate crimes increase 50%.” In the case of Muslim hate crimes, they went from 178 to 257. Even the higher figure means that only about one of every million Americans aged 12-100 committed an anti-Muslim hate crime, and most of those crimes were graffiti, vandalism, or vocal harassment, not aggravated assault or murder.

Heh.
I suspect that a large portion of those hate crimes are by muslims but still counted as against them.
Much of the others are false charges, which we’ve been seeing a lot of lately.

The MSM lies...
Hate crimes against Trump supporters are high on the list too... but the press ignores all except the ‘teachers’ pets’...

"I dont know where the Times got its crap statistics from."
I since discovered that The Seattle Times writer mistook the total hate crimes for ALL categories and applied it to anti-MUSLIM hate crimes. I did that by following the link to one of her source stories. Since I follow hate crime stats from time to time, I instantly knew her figure was way off, by a factor of about 2400%. Apparently none of the professional journalists at the Times noticed the way-too-high figure, since it probably accords with their biased expectations.

That's why I said they got their crappy statistics out of a certain part of their anatomy. You didn't really expect any of these ass hats to get it right, did you? 😎

If the Jew fights back, it becomes a hate crime against a Muslim.
