Anyway, I've never cared for the "hate crime" enhancements. It's too much about criminalizing a person's thoughts and not simply their actions, and that is dangerous territory


I agree with this in most cases, unless it is crystal clear and this one is not.

This would be my guess as well.

Thanks for the citation.

I guess those stats still rely on how the crimes were classified in the first place, so it's hard to know if the final numbers are truly representative. I think most people would assume that based on similar facts, a white is more likely to be charged with a hate crime than a black, but those statistics dont actually address that question.

Blacks commit and are convicted of hate crimes at a much higher rate than other races. Don't let facts get in the way though.

You are full of shite...COMPLETELY full of shite.

It says the commit. It does not say they are prosecuted.

Everyone knows they commit the most hate crimes. Get the racist pieces of shite in Obama's DOJ to prosecute them.

He's correct... Maybe not when it comes to hate crimes, but as a whole.

The FBI stats are probably a compilation of the actual charges. I'd be surprised if they went through every case and individually determined which ones looked to be hate crimes.

To be honest, I don't see a lot of cases being charged with the hate crime statutes around New Orleans.

A relatively small number are prosecuted (both races).
