Because hate crimes are not the only unit of measure for homophobia and racism.

It would make sense that a more racist/homophobic population would have proportionally more hate motivated crimes, would it not? 

not if those places don't consider crimes against people because they are gay "hate crimes" Why not also look at how protected or decriminated gays are under the law. If there is equal protection under the law, vs a severe lacking of protections in housing, employment etc.
