It seems that 2/3 of the incidents reported were relatively minor infractions...vandalism, property damage, or intimidation. More a show of ignorance than a true desire to inflict bodily harm.

I'm curious to know whether there is an increase in these hate related occurences, directly following one of the aforementioned polarizing incidents.
After Jena there were definitely more noose incidents but it's hard to know if they're copy cat crimes or if those kind of hate crimes always go on and just weren't reported in the past.
