    With this 20%+ real inflation(not the fake 7% they say) it's probably a good idea we have such a large trade deficit. They get our worthless hyperinflated money and we get real goods. At least for now.

    According to this offender data for 2020, Blacks committed hate crimes at 1.44 times the rate that whites committed hate crimes. This is based on total population of 329.5 x E6 of which 57 % are white non-Hispanic and 12.1% are Black. I used the offender data that you showed for 2020 also found at justice.gov

    In other words, according to this law enforcement data, blacks are a little more likely to commit hate crimes than whites. (The data is from law enforcement agencies. It may not be reliable because law enforcement funding depends on the data these agencies collect. Law enforcement funding should be independent of justice system revenues; sadly, it is not.
