Attorney General Loretta Lynch on Friday condemned a rise in hate crimes against Muslims in America.

“These numbers should be deeply sobering for all Americans,” Lynch said in response to an FBI report that shows hate crimes against Muslim Americans rose 67 percent in 2015.

Overall, the FBI reported a 6 percent increase in hate crimes.

It reported 5,850 incidents but noted that many hate crimes go unreported and the number could be much higher.

This includes 257 hate crimes against Muslims in 2015, up from 154 in the previous year, which is the highest number since post-9/11 2001.

Other communities that faced increased harassment included African-Americans, Jewish people, and people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, according to the FBI.

“Some of these incidents have happened in schools. Others have targeted houses of worship,” Lynch said. “And some have singled out individuals for attacks and intimidation.”

Lynch promised to step up enforcement of hate crime laws.

Thank you for your report, Ms. Lynch.

Now please have a seat and remain silent.

Well, Loretta, that scale should be deeply sobering.

Sounds like they need to actually start arresting and publicaly and openly prosecuting:
1 people who commit hate crimes, black, white and Muslim, starting with BLM.
2 people who make up fabricated stories for political gain or to enhance a certain political position.

Yes, that's near spot-on. What about 'hate crimes' CNN and the media (and current hyper-partisan democratic party) make against deplorables, Pepe and Christians clinging to their guns and Bibles?

Yep. U read that right.

I suppose it's up from the previous year because we have more Muslims coming in every year and we have more Islamic terror attacks every year. Naturally the level of hate will increase. Not that hate crimes are right .....but considering human nature, this rise makes sense.

256 against Muslims is what I read. I don't know if 256 is a lot or a little. It's about 1 crime for 12000 Muslims.
