INTRODUCTION:

      Because data on hate crimes are often incomplete, we ask some fundamental questions as to their validity and integrity.  On this webpage we attempt to clarify issues that deal with statistics and numbers reported in the FBI Reports.  This report on the study of hate crime statistics is aimed at a better understanding of its meanings and numbers.  We hope you as a reader and a researcher find our information resourceful and helpful.
