During the first half of the year, after President Obama took office, there were drops in the Hate Crime Rate across the board with the exception of a few issues.
In cities of 10,000 citizens up to 24, 999 citizens there was an increase in violent crime and aggravated assault. On both counts the difference in the percent 'incidence' is very different than the rate in cities of one million or more citizens.
I believe that is significant. There are more agencies in this population, but, there are even more agencies in the next category which does not display this trend.
I am also more interested in the statistics as they occur after June 2009, when the summer was met with an organized media campaign to foment hate among the electorate based in lies.
