How is this not a hate crime?

[Clementine]

Some black youths beat this guy while yelling racial slurs against the 'white boy.' One of the suspects was caught and faces several charges, though police didn't consider it a hate crime. This is one of several incidents where minorities attacked white people while yelling racial slurs and no hate crime charges have been filed.

Can we at least be fair when charging people with crimes? Attacking a person simply because of their color is a hate crime and no race should be excluded. Either eliminate the hate crimes altogether or apply them equally to all.

Because the victim is WHITE.

No such thing as racism against a white person. You should know that by now!!!

Eventually...when those who find excuses for this behavior and are white themselves..and one of their loved ones becomes a victim...MAYBE they will get a clue that there is a race war going on right now. It is quite obvious. And those same ones finding those excuses will wake the fuck up like I did. But until then, they can continue to call me racist and ask me where my white hood is. They will get the same treatment by other head-in-the-sand schmucks once they are fully awake..and like me...not give a damn what others think.

It will happen. Because that is exactly where this Ferguson shit is leading us. Another town...another city...another thug...another death...more Al Sharptons..more Black Panthers...more white idiots marching with them until one of them pisses them off....or is in the wrong place at the wrong time. It will happen. It IS happening.

Since we are being "Fair and Balanced".......Is White a color?............or a tone...

I understand your perspective. You just don't understand why blacks are more violent than whites.

And to be honest, I don't understand why "reds" aren't more violent than blacks and whites.

Post 2 nailed it... white people are not a protected class.

Bottom line.

Today, no. It's coming. We are just too happy in our ego to understand our own flaws. The world has hated "Gringo's" since Bush.

Good thing we have the most heavily armed Civilian Militia in the world. But you don't like guns, right?

How is this not a hate crime?

That would depend on the laws of the jurisdiction, the circumstances of the crime, and the sentencing guidelines afforded a judge should the defendant be found guilty.


The Supreme Court has held that judges have considerable latitude with regard to enhanced sentencing when race, religion, or national origin are factored into what motivated a defendant to commit a crime, independent of the original charges.


That one wasn't charged with a 'hate crime' doesn't mean his punishment won't reflect the fact that the race of the victim was part of the motive.


The OP should consider researching an issue first before seeking to contrive a controversy where none likely exists solely to advance an errant, subjective, and partisan rightwing agenda.


Last, the notion that whites are not afforded protections with regard to hate crimes and enhanced sentencing is ignorant rightwing nonsense.

 

[Rotagilla]

Clearly they were disadvantaged youths who can do nothing but beat up/rob/rape/murder old/young white people because of slavery and racism.

They should be treated leniently and given exclusive government benefits because that's worked so well for the last 50 years.

What a surprise that you would step in to defend institutional hypocrisy and black racism.

The indoctrination is strong in him. He has to repeat what he's been told.

The next to the last 3 words in his post (ignorant rightwing nonsense) exposes him for the partisan agitator he is.
If he thought he could find a way to create an insult about the "rightwing" he'd swap sides just to do it.

Not even worth engaging.

Anyone who thinks the the Supreme Court is infallible is automatically a moron.

Correct.
At this point all three branches of gvt have become so corrupt that they are beyond redemption.

america has reached it's evolutionary dead end. People like jones illustrate that perfectly.

Time to start over.

The investigation is not finished and the prosecutor hasn't made a determination of what crimes the assailants will be charged with.

Go back to bed, Grandma.

I assume that the determination of whether it is a hate crime or not depends on the motivation behind the attack.
Surely that's the same as deciding whether a killing is murder or manslaughter.

Eric Holder, Hate Crimes and Double Standards


“If Holder really were interested in enforcing civil rights laws for all Americans, he would be able to produce cases that shows he is doing just that,” Adams said. “But he cannot. Because he is not.”

"There are plenty of recent cases of race-based violence that Holder can choose from. A sampling:

In Brooklyn a few weeks ago, ten black people surrounded a car, then beat the two white occupants, a husband and wife. They even called them racial names, as in “Get those crackers”and “get that white whore.”All in front of witnesses in the middle of the day.

The Brooklyn DA says he will not file hate crime charges.

In New Haven, a few days before that, 500 black people attending a party called“An All Black Affair,” destroyed property and rioted in a downtown restaurant.Then outside. Then in two more restaurants. Not only are there no hate crime charges, New Haven police did not arrest anyone for anything during these rampages.

Race was the central organizing feature of the party — and the riot.

A few days before that in St. Paul, a car full of black people robbed and assaulted a white woman.They called her a “white bitch”while holding her down so one of the assailants could urinate on her.

A few days before that inTacoma, a car full of black people shouted racial expletives at two white soldiers. Soon one soldier was dead from a knife. No hate crime charges have been filed.

A few days beforethat in Pittsburgh, a group of black people pulled a white woman from her car, and while beating her, yelled “Shut up white [expletive].” The other said, “Get that white [expletive].”

A few daysbefore that in Cleveland, mobs of black people were targeting gay bars and assaulting the patrons — verbally and physically — over a several-week period. CNN anchor Don Lemon said being gay was just about the worst thing that a black person can be.

Now made even worse by an attorney general who will not prosecute hate crimes against gay people — some of whom are black.

In Iowa – yes Iowa — hordes of black people beat white people in and out of the Iowa State Fair for three nights in a row in 2011. A police report says some of the people involved were chanting “Beat Whitey Night.” It only takes a few magic words to turn a vicious assault into a federal hate crime. And that seems to fit the bill.

Nothing from Holder."
