Anyway how are jewish people a 'racial' grouping? I don't see it being a racist crime really, but of course it is still a crime. Religeous? I don't believe an athiest could be a jew by the same definition that I don't believe an athiest could be muslim.
Its a shame that people are being attacked for no reason, being targeted especially for no particular crime or reason. |

i consider active violent hate crimes against anyone to be bad, but i think you need to be carefull on these issues, especially with religion
let me describe it like this:
we have 0 issue in society with mocking or hating on people who believe in faries or dragons, yes? but i dont see how thoose beliefs are more or less vaild than religous ones, we have no evidence of either.

Hating Jews has nothing to do with Race, or Religion, and everything to do with Power.
Education is the way to power, and while today, everyone is for education, it's been part of the Jewish Culture for a very long time. Far longer then education has been the norm. So, hundreds of years ago Jews move into a country, have a very small base, yet due most all of them can read, have high math skills, and all the other things that come with education. When the country you move to only has 10% with those skills (and back then, that was all of them), you thrive. This means you make a lot of money, and gain a lot of power.
Anytime a small group of people have a lot of power, they are targets. When things go south (like after WWI, and today), whatever small group is in power, gets blamed for it all. So, Jews take a lot of shit from people.
Now, as for the hate crime comments. I hate that term. A crime is a crime. If I punch someone because they are a jew, and I don't like jews, then it should be the same crime if I just punched someone because i thought it would be fun. I am allowed to think anything I want, it's what I do that matters.
Oh, and FYI. I am a German Jew.
