Here's an interesting blog post by La Shawn Barber about fake hate crimes. We had a big fake hate crime at a college here in Illinois recently. Turned out the racist messages sent to young black women... were from another young black woman... who was homesick.
I agree with LSB that having laws against "hate crimes" is a bad idea. But put that aside. Here's my question: is a fake hate crime, still a hate crime?
Just because I scrawl racist threats, it's not really a hate crime unless I mean it, is it?
As for the real stuff,
