Hate crimes documented by police disproportionately list Black people as attackers, according to a new report by several civil rights groups for better protections under hate crime laws.

Released Wednesday, the report is a comprehensive national review of hate crime laws that shows where laws variate. It also cited widespread flaws in data collection and reporting. Though the majority of hate crimes in the U.S. are committed by white people, motivated by racial or ethnic bias, the crimes disproportionately reported Black Americans as the attackers.

I'm surprised anyone is surprised.

Really?

[RoosterRedux]

Are they disproportionately guilty as charged?

disproportionately

And what do they mean by that?

I think it implies "unfairness". But I the reality is that blacks commit a lot of hate crimes and they get caught doing so. I think the word "disproportionately" is poorly chosen.

I see a contradiction between the first half of the sentence and the second half. How do they claim to know the first half is true?

[goodnesswins]

Um...they “disproportionately list Black people as attackers,” BECAUSE Blacks seem to disproportionately Attack people! So now we are going to have Pretend statistics.

Given their racist conclusions, the hate crime documents should be documented as hate crimes.

[Common Sense 101]

Are they disproportionately guilty as charged?

How can they be "disproportionately guilty as charged", when the charges are disproportionately ignored or changed?

[KC Burke]

Journalistic malpractice is rampant. This writer should be ashamed to take home a paycheck.

[adorno]

Democrats and their left-wing media are experts at hiding the truth, so, why haven’t asked the arresting officers in a hate crime to NEVER report a black attacker as black, and just report the attacker as ‘race undetermined’, or race unknown, or ‘white, but wearing black skin’, or ‘would-be-whitey’.

[Noumenon]

Lets see how fast this one disappears down the old memory hole.

[bk1000]

Well, there it is. No more hate crime charges because they are racist.

[dfwgator]

Like Richard Pryor said after visiting the penitentiary...”Thank God We Got Penitientiaries!”

[SMARTY]

D I T T O!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Fido969]

Though the majority of hate crimes in the U.S. are committed by white people, motivated by racial or ethnic bias,

Just sneak that lie in there.

[Williams]

So they are blaming the statistics as racist!

Next step will be to exempt blacks from hate laws because the laws are being misused.

E Pluribus Unum is raciss!

[ridesthemiles]

Let’s see:

I am a law enforcement officer———

I get called to the scene of an attack-—victim could be any age/color/gender———

I take information from witnesses & make notes for further investigation————

The witnesses are MY ONLY source of information, unless victim can speak-—————

I record what I am told by witnesses-—

THEN I AM ACCUSED OF UNEVEN handling of the facts?

This is all going to blow up on these fools.

[AppyPappy]

Well, that’s easy to fix
