The NYPD's Hate Crime Task Force is investigating a string of recent anti-Mexican bias attacks in the Bronx. Over a three-day period, five Mexican immigrants have been attacked. Four of the victims were beaten; one was stabbed. Anti-Mexican epithets were used during the attacks.
So who is committing these heinous assaults? White people?
No. And yes.
The suspects in all of the attacks are believed to be Dominican, making these hate crimes Hispanic-on-Hispanic. But since the FBI doesn't track Hispanic hate crime suspects, these attacks in the Bronx are all recorded as white-on-Hispanic.
Don't believe me? Here's a link to the FBI's Hate Crime Incident Report. In the 'Bias Motivation' section, 'Anti-Hispanic' is listed. Yet in the 'Suspected Offender's Race' section, Hispanic is not listed. Hispanic suspects are recorded as 'White.'
This asymmetrical reporting has important implications when it comes to hate crimes involving Hispanics and whites.
'White' is a Suspect category and 'Anti-Hispanic' is a Bias category, so white-on-Hispanic hate crimes are recorded as such. But because Hispanics aren't a Suspect category, the only way to record a Hispanic-on-white hate crime is as a White-on-White hate crime. Since this is rather illogical, it's common for prosecutors to simply not pursue hate crimes charges in Hispanic-on-white attacks.
(As an aside, it should be pointed out that even though Anti-White is a Bias category on the FBI's Hate Crime Incident Report, many prosecutors don't consider whites to be a 'protected class' and they are therefore reluctant to treat any anti-White crimes as hate crimes. When Attorney General Eric Holder testified before the Senate in June, he repeatedly claimed that hate crime laws are not designed to protect whites.)
For example, last month in Denver a 49-year-old white woman was killed when she was intentionally run-over by a Mexican driver. A witness told police that immediately before the hit-and-run the suspects shouted, "We're Mexicans! We'll kill you white bitches!"
Rather than prosecute the murder as a White-on-White hate crime, the prosecutors went to great lengths to sanitize the witness's statement of any evidence of anti-White bias. The word "white" was removed from the indictment, and "white bitches" was shortened to just "bitches."
Anti-white violence is rarely treated as bias crime, while internecine violence between Hispanics is recorded as white-on-Hispanic bias crime. When it comes to hate crime recording, the deck is clearly stacked against whites.
As a result, in the fewer than 10,000 hate crimes recorded each year, more than half the suspects are white. At the same time, there are 650,000 total interracial violent crimes committed in this country each year, and 90% of them are black-on-white.
By devoting an inordinate amount of attention to flawed hate crime statistics and ignoring overall violent crime patterns, the media gives an inaccurate portrayal of violent crime in America.

Brilliant work. This looks like a good civil rights case here. The law and the form are unconstitutional. The original intent of the Constitution was not the ethnic cleansing of Founding Stock Americans, who should be a separate target group.
ReplyDeleteHi and thanks for reminder of this over on Digg. I've included a paragraph based on what you wrote in my article and linked over to your article.

ReplyDeleteAll the best!
As far as the above piece is concerned, I am coming to the rather unsettling, though to some quite obvious, conclusion that much of what is happening to Whites is a result of the fact that we just do not care about each other all that much. And to the extent that we do, it's obviously not enough.
We need to work on that. In short, for all of my respect and admiration for Kevin MacDonald, I think our present dilema leans more toward Suicide than Murder. Either way, we're certainly getting it from both sides.
