Hate crime laws lack uniformity across the U.S., report finds

According to the report, transgender people are over four times more likely to experience violent crimes, compared to cisgender people.

The majority of all U.S. hate crimes are committed by white people, according to available data, and the majority of all hate crimes are motivated by racial or ethnic bias. But data also show that hate crimes reported by state law enforcement to the FBI disproportionately list Black Americans as the perpetrators.

As racist attacks on Asian Americans and Asian immigrants gained widespread attention in recent months, so did a false perception that Black Americans were the main culprits of such attacks. Etcubañez added that a lack of accurate hate crime statistics is what inspired passage of the Jabara-Heyer NO HATE Act, as part of the Covid-19 Hate Crimes Act. Named for Khalid Jabara and Heather Heyer, whose hate-motivated killings were prosecuted as hate crimes but not counted in hate statistics, the legislation aims to improve hate crime data collection by law enforcement.

Hellll nahhhh to da naaaaaw

*peeks into comments to see how many Russian bots & NeoNazis are screeching about Freeze Peach*

How many of the recent rash of anti Asian attacks have been classified as such?

It's a choice to make but I had Adverse Effects from Lyrica produced by Pfizer so that's why I'm Vaccine hesitant plus the Vaccine is no guarantee of not getting sick. Have a Blessed Week Exodus 15:26 says 'I am the LORD who heals you.'

Hate crime laws are stupid to begin with. Is murder worse if it is done with hate? LOL

Yes, all those black teens assaulting asians and whites always get away with it.

💤💤💤💤💤💤

White people will never want to admit that there is a problem amongst them. Instead, they will come up with every reason to justify why their relatives feel that way. It's mighty strange how elderly Black dementia patients don't shout out racial slurs the other races do. Do bette

Maybe because hate crime laws are a stupid concept

sure, but they sure as hell are better than nothing
