It’s remarkable how all hate crimes used to be true, but now so many are fake. Same media. Same narrative. But all of a sudden, with modern information and communication, hoaxes are everywhere.

The nose-dive in race relations began with the OJ verdict.

Nonsense.

Trayvon may have given identity politics a big boost, but I remember hearing that stuff as far back as the 1980s (in college).

If it were a "hoax" Martin would still be alive.

People disagreed about the case because there was room for disagreement.

The Jussie Smollett hate crime hoax — he paid Nigerians to pretend to attack him, pour bleach on him and put a noose around his neck — is just the latest. .

The democrat party also sends fake letters to the (newspaper) op/ed sections - - signed by people who are NOT REALLY conservatives but who make conservatives look bad by saying all the racists things they project onto us.

They do the same within conservative internet sites.

This has been going on for years. They also make threats in our name. That Deep State thugs were able to pull up a 'white supremacist on cue to take the spotlight off Smollett is only part of what they do. The guy had probably been under surveillance for years.

The SPLC can pull them up at will and trot them out for public relations fund raising. We need to find out ... how long had they watched him? Was there any chance or change in his mindset that would point to 'action' ... not the words of a nutcase?

How can we stop the pogroms against conservatives when they're kept hidden? We have to confront each one.

What’s the last thing OJ said to Nicole?

The newly updated rules for reporting so-called Hate Crimes means the numbers appear to be rising substantially. So this “factoid” is included in any mention of the topic, sort of as is the “overwhelming consensus” about global warming. And anyone who tried to speak realistically about the topics are dismissed as knuckle-draggers. So frustrating.

This idea that so called ‘race-relations’ were good before X(Obama, Trayvon, OJ - take your pick) happened is a skewed or Utopian view.

Race relations for the most part have only been considered ‘good’ or at least moving in the right direction so long as whites kowtow, give in to demands based on ‘racism’, agree that all race groups but whites can have race based political, lobbying & social groups and that non-whites are awarded all kinds of considerations based specifically on race for jobs, school and just about anything else.

So this idea that race relations were truly ‘good’ is for the most part BS.

Let’s not forget the contributions of our post-racial President to the Trayvon affair.

The author is a know-nothing.

He never heard of Tawana Brawley from the 1980s or Crystal Magmum (Duke Lacrosse) from years before Trayvon?

I can't think racist hate hoaxes without thinking of Al Sharpton. Since he played a central role in both the Brawley & Magmum hoax, they were the first examples that came to my mind.

Did Sharpton manage to get in on the Rodney King thing also?

I think it goes back to Rodney King! The media knew showing the entire video would be a non-story but they were desperate for something huge!

Trayvon Martin Michael Brown are both dead after being shot that is not a hoax
No comparison whatsoever to the stupid little panty waist smell it trying to make him self and do a hero

The hoax or the crime in the Trayvon Martin Michael Brown and the other case out of Maryland are that the media tried to state as white cop shoots helpless black teenager

In that case along with Obama the worst president ever they found the flames and created the entire thing hands up don’t shoot

Again both Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown are dead of gunshots OK so it’s not like they benefited

Trayvon and The Gentle Giant didn’t hoax anything. They were just thuggin’ or maybe trying to engage in trial by combat. Their deaths are very real, the narratives pushed were complete hoaxes. There are many such hoaxes, but they all seem to lead to the same place; YT evil. The fact that some part of the story is real doesn’t remove the hoax, it just makes it a little harder to out as a hoax.

This feeble recounting of the Zimmerman episode which does cover certain well publicized areas fails to hold Obama directly responsible for the results of the Obama decision to employ the use of a political device known as division. Which resulted in a score of killings and assaults. One of which I identify as an example of the press coverage that took place in http://www.theusmat.com/index.htm Scroll past Parkland story to 2nd article

Interesting comments on this thread. Yes, racial unrest began long before Travon and that fat thug in Ferguson.

But the one key ingredient that really escalated racial unrest and the recent race hoaxes is Barack Insane Obama.

He and his Just Us Regime purposely set in place a self destructive black racist agenda that - with the enemedia as a willing accomplice - has spiraled out of control.

Why are racial tensions worse now than they were some 20-30-40 years ago?

One easy answer: Obama.
