Jim Goad’s helpful roundup of ‘hate crime’ hoaxes

November 21, 2016 By Kathy Shaidle

Jim Goad writes:

In Kentucky, a student named Eleesha Long says that three white boys—all of whom happened to be wearing Trump shirts simultaneously—threw rocks at her while shouting racial slurs. But according to a local police official, “several times the complainant changed her story about what happened, where it happened, and when it happened,” and her heartbreaking Hate Saga was determined to be entirely false. A review of her text messages revealed “racist remarks against Trump supporters that she sent to her boyfriend and mother.”

Meanwhile, back in the real world, schoolkids who are even suspected of supporting Trump are getting the shit kicked out of them in California, Texas, Maryland, Virginia, and Florida.
