Hate crimes in Los Angeles County soared last year to their highest mark in five years.

...

763 hate crimes were reported in 2007, a 28 percent increase from 2006.

...

The most common hate crimes were those motivated by race, with 310 committed against black people and 125 against Latinos.

...

16 percent of hate crimes last year were committed by gang members ... Gang members committed 120 hate crimes last year, an increase of 14 percent from 2006.

...

Los Angeles police Chief William Bratton ... downplay[ed] suggestions of racial tension.

...

Friction between black and Latino residents continues to be a major instigator of hate crimes. There were 116 hate crimes unrelated to gangs that were committed by Latinos against blacks and 26 such crimes committed by blacks against Latinos.

The report states that white supremacist activity continues to be "surprisingly high," with 131 hate crimes showing evidence of being committed by white racists.

Not sure why gang violence should be counted as hate crimes. A hate crime, IMO, is when an innocent person is targeted *solely* because of their race or their sexual orientation, etc. With gangs, there are other issues at play.

I've read news reports before of Latino gangs targeting black people for gang initiation attacks. I assume this counts as hate and gang related.

OIC, I was thinking gang vs. gang.

Gangs suck.

Yes, we know, Cali is just a bunch of illegals and gangs and nutty fruit loops. Why would anyone want to live here? Beats me...

The sad thing is that many times kids get caught in the gang land cross fire, tragic really. It's not really a problem if you live in Beverly Hills though not too many gangs hang out there.

Refusing to use the spellchick!

I have put you on ignore. No really, I have, but you are still ruining my enjoyment of this site. .

Here in Riverside County, there are many, many neo-Nazi groups. I once almost had a run-in with a pair from the "Nazi Lowriders" at the gas station. I met some "High Desert" Skinheads in Palm Springs while out walking around on Palm Canyon Drive. In the Republic of Aaland, I met 3 on a ship that wanted to fight - one could have snapped me in half, but I still didn't back down/show fear.

I don't know why these guys always look for fights. I'm very peaceful, and I don't look for trouble. I befriend most people that I meet, unless they're negative and angry people. So, I try to extend myself to everyone regardless of age, gender, sexual orientation, etc.

Its not really a surprise - there's always been a heavy gang prescence in LA, I would expect the geography remain unchanged - with the vast majority of the violence confined to the rough neighborhoods.

If it needs pointing out it has absolutely nothing to do with politics, nor is it reason to point and exclaim "nyah-nyah liberals can't run their state"... These threads have a tendency to lean in that direction. Cheapens what is clearly a very serious issue.
