Using FBI statistics, Audacious Epigone shows that blacks are much more likely than whites to commit an anti-gay hate crime. From the same table, I can calculate the difference for hate crimes involving Hispanic victims. The population-adjusted rate is 1.6 times higher for blacks than whites. This is another indication that blacks have a more serious problem with hate violence than whites. (The rate difference might be inflated some since the "white" numbers include Hispanics who are less likely to commit hates crimes against their own. On the other hand, keep in mind that "Hispanics" include many national groups, members of whom might not like each other.)
This FBI webpage lists the percentage of offenders of any type of hate crime by race. The population-adjusted rate for blacks is 1.8 times that of whites for 2010--the latest year available.

I suspect there is a large correlation. I have called a few different DNA companies asking for the data so I could run the numbers. Noone has replied.
You're right that the true racial gap might be even bigger.
ReplyDeleteBleach,
ReplyDeleteYeah, I doubt the the data are fully trustworthy in terms of good faith, honest collecting and reporting of it. But this does provide a way to counter the use of the phrase "hate crime" as a cudgel to rhetorically bludgeon heterosexual white men.
