'The FBI released an alarming report on Monday that says 'gay bashings' made up 16% of all hate crimes in the U.S. in 2006, up from 14% in 2005.

There were 7,722 reported cases targeting victims or their property as a result of bias against sexual orientation, race, religion, national origin or physical or mental disability'
