Mr. Reilly is author of a new book, “Hate Crime Hoax,” in which he details how the initial publicity for supposed hate crimes tends all but to disappear if the allegations are exposed as fake.


Article cites multiple examples, unfortunately the site put up a pay wall when I visited the article a second time. Thus, just part of the initial paragraph is posted. If interested, read on first click.

Surprise surprise surprise.

I'd say it's more like 1/10th by any real standard. Most of the ones considered real wouldn't be considered so by non-snowflake reality-based people.

The idea of a "hate crime" is utter lunacy anyway. If you're purposely committing a crime against someone it's hateful. If white John hates white Bill and assaults him that's one punishment, but if white John hates black Bill and assaults him it's a stiffer punishment because Bill is black? It's ridiculous.

Very true. Look at the lengths sjws went to bat for Jussie Smollett. He even as far as to pick at 2 guys in a line up. Had those guys not been cops, 2 innocent men would have had their lives ruined.

It's worse than mere lunacy. Punishing people for their thoughts is a tool of totalitarian regimes everywhere.

Wait, what? I remember him saying the 2 guys in the video footage were the purps, but I don't remember hearing he picked guys out of a lineup.

These are orchestrated by an organized entity, and began popping up a lot more after Trump was elected.

They've been clumsy so far, getting caught through various means, but they'll sharpen their skills over time and start getting away with it.

Obama is the gift that keeps on giving.

Yes it ridiculous if you dumb it down to this.

It's a hate crime if John does it because bill is black. Not just because he does it and bill happens to be black.

"Hate crime" is the dumbest thing.


If you murder someone intentionally, I'm going to guess you "hate" that person.

You can hate someone for many reasons and its ridiculous to make one reason arbitrarily more important than others. Theres many reasons why you shouldn't murder someone.
