Today's "On White" Hate crimes and inter-racial crimes

Today, I find the following news items in the US :

In El Monte, Ca, three latinos assaulted a black youth. Charges were filled against one of them, who screamed racial slurs and threw a bottle at him. A 16 year old was also arrested and the third one apprently wasn't caught.

The SGV tribune article then goes on to tell us that there has been two other hate crimes in that Area, both involving latinos men.
  • In May, Guadalupe Padilla, 19, of El Monte was arrested after firing a gun in the direction of a black man while shouting racial slurs at him.
  • In July, Jonathon Carrion, 20, of El Monte and Bobby Perez, 22, of Hacienda Heights were arrested in July on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon and gang violence with a hate-crime enhancement. They stabbed two black men, and a white and Latino man were beaten. All this while screaming racial slurs.

Similarly, In Bal Harbour, Florida, What seems to be 4 latinos and maybe an italo-american have been charged for a Hate crime They are Miguel Aranda, Jose Osorio, Gilberto Maakaroun, Nicholas Checa, Marino Biondini. they assaulted with baseball bats Stephen Barett, a black college Student, Christopher Eden, a white man and Daniel Cabevas, a latinos.

In many news reports however, such as this one, Barett is described as the only victim and no precision is given about the 5 agressors. So this looks like a white on black hate crimes.

In both the Bal harbour beating and the El Monte Assault, These hate crime will be listed as hate crimes commited by Whites. Why ? Because there are no "hispanic" offender categorie in The FBI data collecting form. For this reason, Latinos hate crime are allways counted with the White Hate crime statistics. Which also explains why there are many "white-on-white hate crimes. There is, however, a Hispanic victim categorie.

I also found this report of a assault In Ohio. Apparently, it's seems to be a "on white" crime or hate crime. I merely quote the paper :

Dean Hayes, 19, of Ashtabula, was flown by Cleveland MetroHospital’s helicopter to the Cleveland Clinic shortly after 2 a.m. Friday, after suffering brain injuries from the assault. Acting detective Sgt. Alan Altonen said words were exchanged among Hayes, his friend and the four men who approached them and took their wallets.
“A Hispanic male decked Dean (Hayes), bloodied his face, and then a black male wrestled Dean (Hayes) to the ground, knocking off his glasses,” Altonen said. “The next thing Hayes remembered is being loaded into an ambulance.”
Rhonda Hayes said her son was battered after he was unconscious.
“A weapon must have been used because his injuries were too severe for just a fist,” Rhonda Hayes said. “It was a hate crime.”
Police nabbed a suspect, Londale Miller of Ashtabula, on Ann Avenue, and returned him to the scene, where he was identified as one of the men who fought with Dean.

It seems a new murder will rock the US "white" network. Emily Elizabeth Haddock, a 12 Yo white girl has been murdered by 3 black teens: Van Roger Smith Jr., 16, Sherrod Nicholas Harrison, 19, and Michael Graham Currie. She was actually shot several times. it's odd how black thieves often feel the compelling need to add extra violence when their vicim is White, ain't it ?

Lastly in the UK, Trevor Phillips, the head of the new human rights and equality commission, whio happens to be black, says British history should be rewritten to make it "more inclusive". We have the same problem in France with our own occupants.
