It's an excellent resource to followup on a story since these incidents are occurring with more and more frequency as time goes on.
It appears that in modern day culture, being the victim of any sort of "hate-crime" has become social currency to garner attention, sympathy, and even money. In many cases, it's even being weaponized — such as in this case — in order to ruin the lives of people that someone else doesn't like.
This is the sort of society the perpetual victims and crybullies have created; a world where we deal with a nonstop flood of people victimizing themselves for attention.
The harm from this sort of behavior cannot be emphasized enough. Not only does it ruin the lives of those accused, it also seriously diminishes the rare instances where a crime is motivated by hate. These people are hurting their own cause and it shouldn't be tolerated.
Anyone caught perpetrating a fake hate-crime should suffer the same exact legal consequences as those who would have been charged for committing it — and then some.
The same should apply in many other cases of false accusations, too.
We need tough consequences to put an end to this bullshit or it's never going to stop.
Added it to the database.

Great post man
Users can add hate crime hoaxes to that site? That's really good to know. Faggit can't censor this.
