The ones where people actually died.....no denying those ones I guess?

That sort of thing I'd class as terror attacks more than anything else.

What I was thinking of was alleged one-on-one incidents.

What a wilful misunderstanding.

I was clearly questioning if any high profile alleged hate crimes turned out to not be fake, I didn't say racism doesn't exist, or that hate crimes never happen.

Well if it was misunderstanding it certainly wasn't wilful
