Blog 2: Hate Crimes



This is the second week you have a blog assignment. The blog assignment is hate crimes. Answer the following:
  1. Go to: 
    1. http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/cjis/ucr/hate-crime/2011/tables/table-12
    2. Report the population and the incidents reported
  2. Go to:
    1. http://archive.adl.org/learn/hate_crimes_laws/map_frameset.html
    2. Report what your state covers and what it does not
  3. Go to:
    1. http://www.fas.org/sgp/crs/misc/RL33099.pdf
    2. Find your state
    3. Summarize it like you did for IPV
      1. Pay attention to aggravating circumstances and what all is covered (property damage/damage to persons/etc.)
      2. Make sure you find the definition (this will probably come from both websites)
  4. If you can’t find your state, you will need to find it through a google search. Typing in something similar to: Hate crime legislation in Florida should work.
  5. I would like you to find at least one article/news story from your state that was assigned to you. (You can find your state by logging on to webcourses.) Give an overview of this case (including outcomes/convictions) and information regarding the victim and offender.
  6. Media aspect
    1. A lot of Public Service Announcements, songs, movies, documents, books, etc. have been created concerning Hate Crimes.
      1. find two media documentations (this does not need to come from your state) and should not include manuals
        1. Tell us what they are (including links)…this means give some information about it, not just the links.
