Study by Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism at California State San Bernardino shows a 46% increase in hate crimes across the nation's largest cities.
New York, L.A. and Chicago hit century highs in 2021 according to the study.

Nothing is happening in our cities that the Democrats don’t want to happen. Everything they do enables poverty, crime, homelessness, suffering and hate. If they publicly declared their hatred for America and it’s people, they wouldn’t have to change a thing they’re doing.
how many of these are really hoaxes, 90% or more.
IMO hate crime classification is a joke. Ive been following it for many years and a certain fairly small ethic minority males commit many, many interracial murders where no other motive is apparent and they are never (well in my knowledge hardly ever) classified as hate.
A prime example was just a few weeks ago at a Burger King in New York. A young Latina was killed for no reason by a robber. He had the money and was leaving and actually turned around and casually shot her with no apparent motive. He was of a different race. This crime was discussed here extensively.
Another example was the LA furniture store stabbing….also just weeks ago.
The awful Wisconsin vehicular assault is another example.
I can’t even remember how many times I’ve seen this similar general scenario and never investigated as hate. Hate crime should be banished as a classification and all crimes should be treated fairly and equally for the deed not the motive or the racial/sexual/political identity of those involved.
My 2 cents worth.
These problems are not in red states. They're in Democrat-run cities in red states.
When you see such headlines do a search for each problem by cities in each state.
Expose this obfuscation and fraud.
“Study by Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism” is a useless Center with fake reports made up by bored administrators. In other news, Catholic nuns support the brave truckers in Canada. ‘Nuff said.
another tidbit to note...
if you took all crime stats and removed one segment, crime in the US would be lower than most countries
that segment? blacks.
i hate to say it as it sounds racist... but the stats prove it.
you cannot address a problem if you cannot talk about the actual CAUSE of the problem. and it’s not interracial issues... as most violent crimes are black on black.
Jussie Smollett and Bubba Wallace are deeply saddened.
It’s to the point of absurdity. Darrell Brooks (Waukesha mass murderer) made rap videos where he talked about carjacking and violence against white people, he made social media comments specifically targeting other races etc. Then he went out and ran his car over a parade and targeted almost all white grandmothers and children—literally singing, dancing and drinking hot chocolate. It was a hate crime so obvious it could have been drawn up for a dramatic script for a movie.
Yet it was never labeled or even officially investigated as a possible hate crime.
Brooks: “ so when we start bakk knokkin white people TF out ion wanna hear it...the old white ppl 2, KNOKK DEM TF OUT!! PERIOD,’ he wrote in June 2020”
Incredibly on a Google search I found this article—the #1 result have you—- where the ADL wrote not complaining of the bias of hate crime charges but complaining about white supremacy. They couldn’t even call it what it is but actually termed it a TRAGEDY. As if a lightning bolt had struck the crowd or a car had lost brakes and swerved through the parade. The author can’t even bring him/her self to call it a crime.
I also notice the ADLs moniker at the top of the page is “fighting hate”.
Gag alert, the only thing the ADL says about Brooks is defending him for not being part of an organized hate group. Here is the ADL article:

Gosh, who is committing those hate crimes? They must be overwhelmingly Trump voters right?
Agreed. As I was taught in law school, crime has 2 elements.
actus reus - the physical act
mens rea - the guilty mind. Note it DOES NOT MATTER if the perp committed the crime because they wanted the money or because the victim is of a different ethnic group they hate or if the victim wore purple shoes and the criminal just hated purple shoes. They are in every case, GUILTY! They did it. They intended to do it. They were acting of their own volition. The requirements of mens rea are met in all of the above scenarios.
So why are some categories punished more than others? Why is the crime worse if for example the criminal did it for reasons of race hate than for envy at the victims’ wealth?
Politics. That is the only answer. If those who write the law politically favor your group then you get special protections and there are increased punishments for attacking members of the group for their membership of the politically favored group than there would be for attacking others. Ridiculous. That IMO, violates equal justice and all “hate crimes” laws should be ruled unconstitutional for that reason. I argued this in law school almost 30 years ago. None of my professors was able to come up with a reasonable answer why this was anything other than politics and why it was not unequal justice.
It’s good to hear the opinion of a pro.
