Fake Hate: Police Say Gay YouTube Star Faked Hate Crime
One of the regular segments of my show is highlighting fake hate. Nearly all of the ‘hate crimes’ over the past several years that go viral have ended up being fabricated hoaxes designed to push a false victim narrative while peddling hate themselves. Real victims rarely seek out publicity, and they almost never set up GoFundMe pages.
Yet another example …

Learn the lesson here. If you see a ‘hate crime’ story in the media, don’t automatically believe it.
Also, don’t believe everything in a story that isn’t citing a legitimate source with links. Here’s why …
“LGBT people are the minority group most likely to be targeted for hate crimes, according to FBI statistics. So there are a lot more real stories than fictional.”
Oh really? That was in the same article. Of course, no citation was made, and my background already tells me it’s bogus. Challenge accepted!
An analysis of data for victims of single-bias hate crime incidents showed that:
48.3 percent of the victims were targeted because of the offenders’ bias against race.
18.7 percent were targeted because of bias against sexual orientation.
17.1 percent were victimized because of bias against religion.
12.3 percent were victimized because of bias against ethnicity.
1.6 percent were victims of gender-identity bias.
1.4 percent were targeted because of bias against disability.
0.6 percent (40 individuals) were victims of gender bias. (Based on Table 1.)https://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/hate-crime/2014/topic-pages/victims_final
That’s 2014 data on the FBI’s website.
It should be noted that the FBI’s data has some problems with regards to racial bias hate crimes. You see, a lot of hate crimes committed against whites don’t get categorized as hate crimes. There are also very few hate crimes committed in the US, but you wouldn’t no it based on media hype. With that said, we aren’t talking about that necessarily. The author of this article stated FBI data shows LGBT people are the most targeted for hate crimes.
As you can see, hate crimes based on race occur nearly twice as much as those directed towards LGBT victims. So race, not sexual orientation leads the pack in hate crimes.
I’d still like to remind you that Americans rank as one of the least racist people on the planet.
Many will like say that hate crimes based on race shouldn’t be all inclusive. Each individual race counts as a minority group (minus white people, of course), while LGBT is its own group. They could argue that the LGBT group is targeted more than any other individual group (i.e. Blacks, Hispanics, etc.). However, that still isn’t true.
Among single-bias hate crime incidents in 2014, there were 3,227 victims of racially motivated hate crime.
Of the 1,248 victims targeted due to sexual-orientation bias.
You have to subtract 1.5% from the sexual-orientation bracket because they were hate crimes against heterosexuals, and don’t count as LGBT hate crimes. The new number is 1,229 total victims of anti-LGBT hate crimes in 2014.
Meanwhile, 62.7% of racial hate crimes were committed against blacks. That’s 2,023 of the 3.227 racially motivated hate crimes.
There were 794 more hate crimes just against blacks in 2014 than there were against the entire LGBT community.
Even if you added all 109 gender identity hate crime victims to expand LGBT to LGBTQ you still are well short of the hate crimes experienced by just blacks.
Any way you cut it, the article’s assertion that the LGBT community is the most targeted minority group for hate crimes is patently false.
Exit question: Is this gay guy threatening to shoot Republican Senators a hate crime?
No, Hillary Clinton Does Not Have A 12 Point Lead Over Donald Trump
Last week I broke down two polls that gave Hillary a 6 point overall lead over Trump. Both of those polls over-sampled Democrats. When you corrected their methodology the polls showed a tie between the two candidates. When you added that new data into the RCP average (really the only data you should care about) Hillary’s lead vanishes into a tie.
Dirty poll tricks are nothing new to politics, and the casual observer doesn’t understand poll science. So it becomes easy to manipulate people in order to steer election results. It’s highly unethical, but common.
No one should care about polls this early anyway, but … Merica!
Now the news headlines are ringing with a new poll showing Hillary has a 12 point lead over Trump. That would be interesting considering he’s been gaining on her since the Orlando terrorist attack, but I digress.

What Jim Hoft over at The Gateway Pundit is point out is that the latest Reuters poll sampled 52% Democrats (already a major problem), and only 35% Republicans. Highly problematic and inaccurate results from a clearly skewed poll should be disregarded. You can see for yourself on Reuters’ website if you don’t trust GP.
There is another poll showing a 12 point lead for Hillary over Trump by ABC/Washington Post.

If you adjust for Gary Johnson, it’s a 10 point lead for Hillary.
However, the poll over-samples Democrats too. Guess by how much. Go ahead … guess. Yep, 12 points. How very coincidental that a poll showing Hillary has a 12 point lead over Trump over-samples Democrats by 12 points.
Sampling should be as close to the 3-4% margin of error the poll strives for. Ideally, you’d get 33% Democrat, 33% Republican, 33% independents to give you an accurate poll.
In two weeks, we’ve had at least 4 polls showing Hillary with a lead over Trump by almost the exact same number as Democrats are being over-sampled.
This race right now is a tie.
While Democrats Sit On The Floor, War Criminal Immigrant Works Security At Airport
If you want to see me dismantle people supporting the utterly stupid stunt Democrats pulled with #OperationDirtyPants, follow me on Twitter @CaseyTheHost.
While Democrats were performing meaningless political theater to distract the less-informed American public, CNN was busy discovering that a Somali war criminal is working as a security guard at Dulles International Airport in Virginia.
Yeah, we don’t have an immigration problem in the United States at all.
Did Orlando Terrorist Attack To Help His Dad Get Elected In Afghanistan?
I’m going to start this by acknowledging this is a little out there, but bare with me.
Orlando terrorist jihadi Omar Mateen’s dad, Seddique Mateen, is a pro-Taliban Afghani who recently declared his candidacy for president of Afghanistan. He’s out there talking about the terrorist attack like he was a moderate western friendly Muslim. His history of rhetoric calls that into question.
Daddy Mateen has been posting on Facebook, and is, apparently, campaigning. There aren’t posts of a grieving father at all. Some of his followers are also praising his son.
He also just posted this 18 hours ago:
Could this be way to elevate his status back in Afghanistan among the Taliban? Perhaps he’s just an opportunist pouncing on the opportunity. Maybe it’s all just a coincidence.
Yes, Google Is Manipulating Searches To Help Hillary. Here’s The Proof.
I’ve been sounding the alarm on how internet search engines and social media bias is steering #election results by secretly manipulating data since at least 2012. I recently highlighted why #Facebook‘s undeniable anti-conservative bias is a really big deal. In that segment I also broke down how #Google has an open strategy of manipulating #search results to help certain candidates. This isn’t new. It’s just that more people are aware of it now.
