Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta told an assembly
of FBI agents yesterday that they are now tasked with hounding
police departments in their district if they do not register any
"hate crimes."
Gupta and FBI Deputy Assistant Director of the
Criminal Investigative Division Jay Greenberg have declared "hate
crimes" by "racially motivated violent extremists" (a euphemism
generally reserved for right-wing white men) to be a national threat
priority -- a rare designation.
According to Greenberg, the FBI will be increasingly
specialized in pursuing "hate crimes" through increased
training in the matter, an aggressive media campaign designed to recruit
victims in "underrepresented and targeted populations," and
putting federal pressure on local law enforcement to charge and report hate
crimes when they otherwise wouldn't.
Hate crimes laws are political and racially motivated.
Blacks and Jews are heavily overrepresented as supposed victims in the
FBI's "hate crime" database, while whites are charged at
higher rates than general crime rates. Blacks are rarely charged with hate crimes
when they commit bias crimes against whites. For example, last month a
black man who shot five white men in a multi-state shooting spree told
police his sole motive was that he hated white people, yet neither local
prosecutors or the FBI have charged him with a hate crime.
According to the FBI's 2019 hate crime report, blacks are
49% of victims of racial bias while Jews are 60% of crimes motivated by
religious animosity. Most of the blacks in the data were victims of
"intimidation," an often Constitutionally dubious charge. A large
number of reported hate crimes targeting both blacks and Jews are hoaxes, as
seen in famous cases like the Jussie Smollett incident and the thousands of
bomb threats targeting Jewish community centers that were the work
of a Jew in Israel.
Just yesterday, a white man was charged with "ethnic
intimidation" for putting
up stickers that say "I Love Being White." The FBI wants
more police departments to exploit the legal gray area and lack of First
Amendment advocacy groups for white dissidents to juke crime statistics and
distort the reality of crime. Blacks commit roughly 90%
of violent interracial felonies, a statistic the Critical Race Theorists at
the FBI find inconvenient.
The mad rush for white racists at the FBI is bound to
cause more embarrassments for the increasingly discredited agency. Last
year, the theater
put on by the FBI over NASCAR driver Bubba Wallace's
"noose," which turned out to be a hoax, served to reveal the
hyper-politicization and lack of seriousness at the Bureau.
