Hate Crimes in the USA - 2008
Zoe Brain

http://aebrain.blogspot.com/2009/11/hate-crimes-in-usa-2008.html

The FBI reported the following hate crimes involving actual physical violence in the USA in 2008:

As for non-Trans gay people:
5 Murders, 6 rapes, 232 Aggravated Assaults, and 501 simple Assaults. 744 people raped, murders, or violently attacked.

Data on Trans people wasn't kept - until the recent Federal Hate Crime laws were passed, the FBI wasn't allowed to count hate crimes against trans people. But we know just from newspaper reports that at least 19 were slain.
