Pig's head thrown into mosque

[I'm Gone 60]

What is the difference between someone painting racist words on someone's Garaqe and this. These are hate crimes and these people should fry. Community service is not enough. Maybe he shouldn't go to jail, but he needs to be pubilically humilated.

let him get away with it and this opens doors for others things. Or are Muslims not human and have the same rights as everyone else.

As I said I have a problem with the hate crime nonsense, why is an action against one group more of a crime than if it's done against another group. Spray painting on someone garage is already a crime, so why is it more of a crime if it's done on my garage than on yours.

Community service and/or a fine is plenty for a one time action of someone that otherwise has a clean record. No one was injuried or property damaged beyond repair. Rolling a pig head down the aisle is not the same as buring the place down.

A racially motivated crime against a white person would also be a hate crime. It's not about the victim, it's about the motive.

You tell me when someone has been charge with a hate crime against a white person?

By Bias Motivation

In 2004, racial bias motivated more than half (53.9 percent) of the 9,021 reported offenses within single-bias hate crime incidents; religious bias accounted for 16.4 percent; bias regarding sexual orientation, 15.6 percent; ethnicity or national origin, 13.3 percent; and disability bias, 0.8 percent.

Law enforcement agencies reported 4,863 offenses within single-bias incidents that were motivated by the offender’s racial bias. Among those offenses, 67.5 percent resulted from an anti-black bias, and 20.5 percent were due to an anti-white bias. Slightly more than 5 percent (5.2) of racially motivated incidents were driven by an anti-Asian or Pacific Islander bias, 2.0 percent involved a bias against American Indian or Alaskan Native races, and 4.8 percent were directed at groups of individuals in which more than one race was represented (multiple races, group).

Of the 1,480 reported offenses within single-bias incidents that were motivated by the offender’s religious bias, 67.8 percent were anti-Jewish, 13.0 percent were anti-Islamic, 3.9 percent were anti-Catholic, 2.9 percent were anti-Protestant, and 0.5 percent were anti-Atheism or Agnosticism. Bias against other (unspecified) religions accounted for 9.5 percent of the hate crime offenses motivated by religious bias, and bias against groups of individuals of varying religions (anti-multiple religions, group) accounted for 2.5 percent.

As I said when has a person be CHARGED with a hate crime against a white person, not statistics of how it was reported.

Black man charged with hate crime in threats to TV news crew

"That, and a hail of racial slurs, earned him a trip to jail Thursday, along with a rare charge from Pierce County prosecutors: a black-on-white hate crime."

OK so it's happened twice.

Well, here we go again. I'm not sure the relevancy of this sudden debate... someone did something really stupid and crappy to someone else... it was wrong. End of story. Have a nice day... and a flower.
