Just because they’re a smaller percentage doesn’t mean they can’t commit an equal amount or more hate crimes…

Do you understand how statistics work?

>it simple wouldnt make sense to use black criminals (racists) as the face of hate crime in America

And there it is lol you said the quiet part out loud haha holy fuck.

But they don’t. There are literally sundown towns & KKK in nearly every state. Again, why would you expect hate crimes don’t by blacks to be prevalent in the media like the crimes done by whites? Most hate crimes are done by whites so idk why you’d equate not many black offenders in the media as the media ignoring it

And there are black and Hispanic people in every state that attack one another over racial differences, attack themselves (Dominicans vs PR’s for instance), attack other races (Asians predominantly), etc.

In 2021, total hate crimes committed amounted to 8673 reported cases. 56.1% (4865.55) were white offenders. 21.3% (1847.34) were black offenders.

Those white offenders accounted for .002% of the 2021 white population. The black offenders accounted for .005% of the black population. Statistically, you are more likely to have a hate crime committed against you than a white person.

Black people per population commit more hate crimes than whites. Shocker…

Does that change the fact that most hate crimes are committed by whites? Which was what we were talking in the first place? More offenders more exposure

Yes, because the likelihood that a white person commits a hate crime is less than a black person. Statistics matter.

It’s like you don’t understand statistics. In this case, it’s the opposite. The greater the representation of race per hate crime = more exposure. More black people are committing hate crimes than whites via population. More offenders do not equal more exposure.
