FBI: NH has unusually few "hate crimes."
« on: November 27, 2011, 12:42:13 pm »

Sponsor: http://WeUseCoins.org - Tony Schinella @ ConcordPatch is reporting NH has an unusually low incidence of hate crimes.  Less than 1 incident per 40,000 people according to recently released FBI statistics.  Click link below, if available, or see video descrip for details.

Statistics can be tricky...

It's probably true that NH is one of the least bigoted states, but the "hate crime" numbers are not a good way to prove this.  From what I understand, the classification of what constitutes a "hate crime" can vary drastically.  NH's ethnic homogeneity also makes violence between members of different ethnic groups less likely, and the low fertility rates / older population makes crime less likely in general.  Even the climate is a factor - more crime happens on hot summer days, and you obviously have less crime when it snows out and people sit in their homes...
