CHAPEL HILL -- A UNC-Chapel Hill freshman who told police he was attacked by a man who burned his hand and called him an anti-gay slur made a false report, the university says.

In a message just released to the campus community, Chancellor Holden Thorp says: "The Department of Public Safety has determined that the alleged aggravated assault reported to campus last night did not occur. That report, filed with campus police on April 5, was false. The University will not report it as a hate crime."

"It is important to recognize that incidents of harassment do occur," Thorp continued. "When they do, we take them seriously. We strive to foster a welcoming, inclusive and safe environment at Carolina.

A phony hate crime concocted by a loser, longing to be a victim of society's oppression, on a college campus. This has to be a first.

And no charges for filing a false police report? No attempt to at least bill the perp for wasted police time?

The law doesn’t apply to official minorities and sodomites.

The “first” would be if they actually charged one of these idiots with making a false report.

It was a hate crime against heteros. They should charge him with that.

I guess this Commie Pinko activist didn't get the news that Mike Nifong isn't on the case down there anymore. Otherwise they would be going to trial on the allegations. There must be something in the water in that part of the state.

AFAICS, "hate crime" legislation is unconstitutional per the Fourteenth Amendment, which is supposed to guarantee equal protection of the laws. Hate crime laws increase the penalties according to the plaintiff's thoughts and/or beliefs, thus making the protections unequal, and introducing "crimethink" into the real world off the pages of Orwell's book.

Isn’t it a hate crime to falsely accuse someone of a hate crime?

There was a case a few years at Claremont College north of Los Angeles where this lesbian prof claimed that her car was keyed due to her persuasion. FALSE! Security cams showed her doing the act. She was charged and found guilty of filing a false report. Her initial report caused quite an uproar, all kinds of demostrations.

Hate Crime Hoaxes

Claremont Hate Crime Called Hoax
LA Times (FR thread) | March 17. 2004 | Joy Buchanan, Kristina Sauerwein and Stuart Silverstein

A week after a reported campus hate crime drew national attention, sparked protests and shut down the prestigious Claremont Colleges, police on Wednesday called the incident a hoax staged by a professor who slashed tires, shattered windows and spray-painted racist graffiti on her own car.

Claremont McKenna College psychology professor Kerri Dunn, who had told police that her car was vandalized as she spoke at a March 9 forum on racism, was identified by two eyewitnesses as the person who damaged the auto, authorities said Wednesday.

Professor Kerri Dunn vandalized her own car and then led "Stop The Hate" rallies on campus.

This person SERIOUSLY needs Jesus, It appears that this guy hates himself or gays so much, he commits a hate crime against HIMSELF for being gay? He probably believes he did this to create sympathy for gays, I believe he did this because subconsciously he thinks that he is SO ugly or bad or whatever, that he had to somehow had to be punished.

Lord please help this guy.

Not even close. I'd guess about 50% of so-called hate crimes are faked to "raise awareness".
