37. Right, but when a black person is hanging from a tree,
I don't start thinking a black person did it.

And when a gay person is beaten to death outside a gay club with a baseball bat, I don't start thinking a gay person did it.

100 percent of all hate crimes are committed by someone who hates.

That we know, without having to look at any FBI statistics like the ones you cited that hardly paint the full picture.
