The purpose of this site is to compile a comprehensive database of the false reports of "hate crimes" committed (mostly) in the USA. It builds on the work of
Laird Wilcox
, whose
Crying Wolf
(PDF) is the original book on this subject. The books
Hate Crime Hoax
and
Hate Crimes: Criminal Law & Identity Politics
are also recommended.
