- inboxnews, on 07/24/2008, -1/+1The numbers buck last year's overall crime trends, which saw a decrease of 6 percent in Los Angeles County and 5 percent in the city of Los Angeles, the report notes. The most common hate crimes were those motivated by race, with 310 committed against black people and 125 against Latinos. However, crimes in which anti-immigrant slurs were used dropped slightly. (from the article)
- meuse, on 07/24/2008, -0/+4Note the contrast in the article between the descriptions of the hate crimes committed by blacks and Hispanics and the ones committed by whites. This was deliberate, and another example of anti-white media bias.
The 4 paragraphs following the statistics for minority-perpetrated hate crimes try to mitigate the findings. Gang activity and poverty are given as the root causes, not racial hatred.
On the other hand, the article implies every white person who committed a hate crime was motivated by racial hatred. All 131 white perpetrators are branded as "white racists" engaging in "white supremacist activity". The terms "racist" and "supremacist" weren't used for any of the blacks and Hispanics.
Also, after the paragraph on minority hate crimes it's stressed that these represent only a tiny percentage of overall crime. After the paragraph on white hate crimes it says that the true number of hate crimes could be as much as 28 times higher than the number reported, because people fear retaliation. The article gives you the impression that the minority numbers are accurate, while the white numbers are wildly inaccurate because people are too fearful of retaliation by of "white racists" to report their attacks to the authorities. - Conspiracy20, on 07/24/2008, -0/+1Hate crimes are an attempt (working by the way) to control what you think! Crime isn't love no matter what they try to ram down your throat. It's about appeasing one and attacking another.
