'Hate Crime' Hoaxes

Best of the Web Today: 'Hate Crime' Hoaxes - WSJ.com:
"Why are phony "hate crimes" so common, especially on college campuses? 
...One obvious answer is that people do this sort of thing to get attention.
Multicultural identity politics, which is a dominant force on campus and a significant one off it, creates a perverse incentive structure by rewarding victims of purported hate and going easy on hoaxers. "
