When was the last time you ever heard of a violent attack on a white person being labeled as a hate crime? Can't recall, right? It seems that hate crimes can only be perpetrated against ethnic minorities, which in my view is a blatant double standard. Point in case, the six black students that beat a white kid in Louisianna a few months ago. No hate crime convictions were made even though the attack was racially motivated. The incident was written off as a school yard scuffle. I say again, very much double standards.

I know you are not talking about Jena because if you wanna talk about racial double standards.Anyway, maybe you should sit down and think of the issues of race and power and then turn on your news because I can guarantee you that you will see a story about a person of color committing a crime. That should make you feel better.

Didn't want to reply to my question of why a blatant racially motivated attack on a white person is never classified as a hate crime? Is it only minorities that are protected under hate crime laws? Yes, I was referring to the Jena incident when six blacks jumped a white kid, beat him to the point of having to be hospitalized over an incident the white kid had nothing to do with. Laws are passed to protect all people, yet some seem specifically designed to favor certain groups of people. That is still double standards any way you want to look at it. Whites should also be protected against hate crimes, yet it appears no one can come up with a case where the hate crime law applied.

Actually, you're wrong. White people are victims of hate crimes to the tune of about 800-1100 incidents per year. Also, you might also consider that of all racially motivated crimes, over 90% are perpetrated by white people statistically. If you don't want white people to be charged with hate crimes, tell them to stop committing crimes based on race.

Police only wants my husband's statement about hatecrime actions against me from next door neighbors. Been e-mailing him about stolking, calling, and house vandalism. They won't accept my statement. I am the victim, not my husband.
My civil rights and my human rights have been violated.

answer the ? yourself..you're white. A majority of hate-crimes are committed BY whites UPON ethnic people and sometimes even their own if they know them to have befriended a "minority" or "immigrant"(legal & illegal). stop spewing off those fictional beliefs of yours and come with a source-what links can u provide & who said the kid had nothing to do with what happened to those black teens? u seem to forget what had already been done to THEM...noose incidents that were casually ignored by authorities and school personnel...the slaps on the wrists they received as if condoning their racist motives. Ignorance isn't born within, peons create and flourish in it.

Maybe as a whole whites commit more hate crimes. But as a percentage this is not the case. Minorities commit more hate crimes than whites. It time that whites stand up and take our country back.

Take the country back from whom exactly?
