How long will it be until we find out which of these election season "rascist hate crimes" are, as is most common, actually hoaxes perpetrated by the supposed "victim"?
One such just happened near here recently when a Muslim college student claimed she was assaulted in a women's room by a man who implied he was doing it because of her faith. Of course everyone was "outraged". But now a peep was heard when it was quietly reported that the incident hadn't even happened. I didn't believe it the first time I heeard the report.
My bet is that these election incidents, like the tale above, will never be followed up on. But the initial charges will turn up again and again in the "new history" books and PBS "history" videos along with those about Bush's stealing of the 2002 election.
