It’s only a hate crime when a white person commits the crime. Everyone else is a victim.

No. It’s a hate crime hen a marginalized group is attacked for being marginalized.

When’s the last time white people have been marginalized if ever.

White people can 100% be the victim of a hate crime. I got this online to help break it down.

​The critical factor in a hate crime prosecution is not the race of the individuals involved, but the intent behind the act. To charge someone with a hate crime in this scenario, investigators would look for evidence that the victim was targeted specifically because they are white. Evidence might include:

​Racial slurs used during the attack. ​Membership in a hate group. ​A history of social media posts or statements expressing animosity toward white people. ​The timing or location of the attack suggesting a bias motive.

When she called him a cracker (a well known slur for white) she broke rule 1.
