A hate crime (also known as a bias-motivated crime) is a prejudice-motivated crime, often violent, which occurs when a perpetrator targets a victim because of his or her membership (or perceived membership) in a certain social group. Examples of such groups can include but are not limited to: ethnicity, disability, language, nationality, physical appearance, religion, gender identity or sexual orientation. Non-criminal actions that are motivated by these reasons are often called "bias incidents".
"Hate crime" generally refers to criminal acts that are seen to have been motivated by bias against one or more of the types above, or of their derivatives. Incidents may involve physical assault, damage to property, bullying, harassment, verbal abuse or insults, mate crime or offensive graffiti or letters (hate mail).
A hate crime law is a law intended to deter bias-motivated violence. Hate crime laws are distinct from laws against hate speech in that hate crime laws enhance the penalties associated with conduct that is already criminal under other laws, while hate speech laws criminalize a category of speech. Hate speech laws exist in many countries, but in the USA, they are in conflict with the first amendment right to freedom of speech, so have repeatedly been overturned as unconstitutional.

Adam Pearson is on a mission to explore disability hate crime - to find out why it goes under-reported, under-recorded and under people's radar. In this documentary, Adam challenges people into questioning their attitudes towards disability and disfigurement, to uncover the roots of the issue. Adam has neurofibromatosis type 1, a condition that causes benign tumours to grow on nerve endings - in his case, on his face. He is disfigured and disabled and has experienced disability hate crime first-hand, like a number of his friends, some of whom he meets with in the film. Their stories may differ, but their disability as the motivating factor is constant. Just days into his investigation, Adam becomes the target of some grossly offensive online hate speech. While this isn't unusual for him,...

CINCINNATI, OH. A group known as the Traditionalist Youth Network wants stronger charges brought against those involved in the Fountain Square attack. “Why is there a double standard when it comes to white lives in Cincinnati,” said Chairman of the Cincinnati chapter Matthew Heimbach. “In the incident report the police officer said it was anti-white violence.” Heimbach is referring to the attack on a white man from Indiana named Chris McKnight. McKnight was beaten by a group of what appears to be black men on Fountain Square. The police officer working the case originally classified it as a robbery and felt it was a hate crime. Later, the officer changed his mind and reclassified the incident report. “You had 40 assailants and one white victim…if it were a reversed case where 40 white ...
"It's just shocking.. I didn't even think anybody would do anything like that." Cops say a brutal battery on a woman in broad daylight, happened October 1st on Mack Road. "He goes up and punches her in the face. That's kinda the shocking part of the video. It's unprovoked," Sacramento police Sgt. Andrew Pettit said. After some taunting and laughing at the woman, she's attacked once again. "He takes a fighting stance, punches in the face. Knocks her right to the ground. He looks like he has no remorse and just walks away," Petitt said. Neighboring businesses called police. The woman didn't want any medical help, and didn't even want to make a big deal of her attack. But now, police say with her help, and the video capturing the assault, they have a better chance of prosecu...

Police have arrested a man they say admitted to stabbing a 60-year-old woman to death in Queens last week. Investigators say 22-year-old Yonatan Galvez-Marin admitted that he tried to rob Nazma Khanam while she was walking home in Jamaica, Queens Wednesday night. He allegedly stabbed Khanam after she refused to give him money. He's now facing charges of murder, attempted robbery and criminal possession of a weapon. Police have dismissed the idea that the killing was hate crime, but Majeda Uddin, the victim's niece, believes Khanam was killed because of her faith. She says negative rhetoric from the presidential election has fueled backlash against Muslims. "No. I think every month is creating new people, because of racism, because of hate crimes, many more, because all the months, t...
