(US) Well, with all the riots going on in the US, I suppose the annual report from the U.S. Department of Justice’s Bureau of Justice Statistics, which shows a steep drop in the nationwide number of perceived hate crimes, isn't going to get much coverage.
Funny enough, while the nation reported a drop in overall incidents, one area of the US — Washington, DC — actually recorded a spike and, funny enough, of the 18 race-based hate crimes in 2013, the majority of victims were white and the majority of suspects black. The number of incidents was up from the 13 race-based bias crimes reported in 2012.
