The only problem with that statistic, is that sex orientation crimes and transgender related crimes are much less likely to get reported.
When a black or latino is attacked, there are multitudes of fellow community members ready to stand up in their defense, while all the while identifying with the predicament.
Many gays feel as though if they weren't so mess up in the first place, nobody would have bothered them. They therefore, feel as though they brought the attack on by themselves. Another thing is that many gays are still in the closet. If not in the closet for all, they are at least in the closet insofar as employment is concerned. Some gays have been harassed by the police and therefore, tend to steer clear of law enforcement.
As I was reading the conversation here, I knew somebody would disagree with Redress's calm and logical argument.
Your second paragraph needs to be linked. Redress provided a good source for his stats. Please do the same for your hysterical claims.
