Violent hate crimes in L.A. hit highest level in more than a decade; white supremacist acts jump 38%

Los Angeles County reported the highest number of violent hate crimes last year in more than a decade, with white supremacist crimes jumping by 38%, while attacks on the transgender community surged 64%, according to a new report.

Of the 524 hate crimes reported in the county last year, 343 were of a violent nature, the largest number in this category since 2008, according to the Los Angeles County Commission on Human Relations 2019 annual report. There was one reported case of attempted murder.

Black people were targeted in 47% of the racially motivated hate crimes in 2019 while constituting only 9% of the county’s population, said Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas.

“For those who believe that racism is no longer a problem, I invite you to review the examples this report provides of these vile and cowardly crimes, more than 70% of which were classified as violent in nature,” Thomas said.

LAPD statistics showed hate crimes rose in Los Angeles for the fifth straight year in 2019, increasing 10.3% over the year before and reaching their highest level since 2002. A total of 322 hate crimes were reported last year — compared with 292 in 2018 — including 77 assaults. Blacks and the LGBTQ community were the most frequently targeted.

Something or someone has emboldened these people. I wonder who or what that could be?

The one thing I see across the nation is the lack of hate crime charges when the crime is directed towards whites. This political correctness would make all these numbers meaningless.

It's not someone it's something. Lack of employment, lack of self worth etc. People aren't happy with themselves so they act out and blame everyone else. We have a huge problem with the lack of personal responsibility.

I don't think you're understanding that statistic correctly. I believe that is the rate of violent hate crimes among all hate crimes against selected groups. What you're looking for is

Some whites moved out of black neighborhoods due to violence against whites. It was categorized as crime without the word hate being used to describe it.

Your report says racial hate crimes decreased 9% from 2018 and 2019 and 2019 was the first year in 20 years that anti-black hate crimes weren't mostly committed by Latinos.

The only skin color that's actually a problem is fake tan orange.
