leftists are practically prolapsing their colons shrieking about the supposed epidemic of 'racist' incidents, allegedly from trump supporters [or allegedly inspired by trump's win].
nearly always these are one person's unverifiable claim, which the usual suspects believe without question. this is what happens when being a [supposed] victim is a huge asset with which to beat the opposition endlessly.
I suspect that the vast majority of these allegations are hoaxes. here are 5 verified as such.
shockingly, when the real stories come out, they get 1/1000 of the coverage that the original hoax did when it was first breathlessly reported by the SJW contingent and MSM sources.
Did you want me to start listing all the non-hoaxes?
What purpose would that serve?
People bashing people over politics?
There will always be hoaxes, because there are always real incidents of racism, misogyny, and just plain hatred of anyone who is different. This thread doesn't deny that real incidents happen. It doesn't deny that there is a lot of hatred and a lot of people who act on their hatred. And there are people throughout the political spectrum who behave badly.
All you are trying to do is to cast suspicion on all such incidents by pointing out that some of those incidents were hoaxes. But not all of them are.
And the violence that has been happening at the anti-Trump protests is real, too. And probably a good portion of it is perpetrated by people who just want an excuse to behave badly. Which doesn't excuse the violence. It doesn't let people off the hook.
And the fact that hoaxes have occurred doesn't let people off the hook who really have been committing these hate acts.
We live in a diverse country, and that diversity creates friction and unrest sometimes. But it also makes us a stronger country.

yes, with good reason. we absolutely have reason to be skeptical of the veracity of these claims, given the hundreds of times such incidents have proven to be faked.

Well, it would be nice to know that there really are people acting like idiots on both sides. Right now, it is sadly very clear that way, way, way more whiny little liberal kids have been/are running around wreaking havoc over the election. You know, exactly like we didn't see in 2012 when Obama defeated Romney in that year's presidential election. I'd kinda like to believe that it's not just massive groups of Democrats doing this crap.
Police say a Volusia County man faked a hate crime, set his ex-girlfriend's car on fire and then staged his own abduction to throw off detectives.
Vincent Palmer, 27, told detectives he taped a note with racial slurs and the words "KKK" and "Trump" written on it to his ex-girlfriend's mailbox early Saturday before throwing a brick through her car window and dousing the back seat in gasoline because they were having problems over the custody of their children, according to an arrest report.
The Muslim college student who claimed she was harassed on the subway by three men who shouted “Donald Trump,” called her a terrorist and tried to rip her hijab off her head has admitted to detectives that she concocted the entire story, the Daily News has learned.
Yasmin Seweid, 18, has been charged with filing a false report, a police source said.
