That’s not anywhere close to a majority...

#1 Given, American Jews make up about < 2% of the U.S. population, yet are the targets of nearly 60% of religious bias crimes.

I did a quick dig of what the Demographics would be about, when compared to what the percentage of each group makes up of the US Population using US Census 2020 data applied to per 1,000 for that group..

Of the 6,312 known offenders in Hate Crime cases (FBI).
I was somewhat surprised to find based on Population size, the American-Blacks that make up 13.6% of the US Census 2020 population, accounted for 21.3% of all Hate Crimes according to FBI Hate Crime data.

I'll leave the rest to those that want to extrapolate it further out into cases per 1,000 ethic/racial population.

#3 So, some "minority groups" punch above their weight in the stats.

#5 13.6% of the US Census 2020 population, accounted for 21.3% of all Hate Crimes

I'd say another group is punching above their weight. As I recall, people of middle eastern origin are considered white (by the FBI).

#6 So are Mexicans and other non-black Hispanics. Another way for the FBI to manipulate crime statistics.

#7 That's likely the same percentage of the population who will go to their graves claiming Sunday's game had The Best Halftime Show Evah!

We need Kamela to do the Venn overlap for us.

#8 18% of Americans

A rather small slice considering that 82% of Americans are on the other side of the proposition. I wonder what the demographics of this particular 18% are?

#10 When I saw Aca Joe as the last comment, I wondered if he had learned his lesson. Apparently not.

#11 Nope. Ever tried teaching logic and reason to a tree stump?

#12 I refuse to spend time with people that think they know how others should live.
