When queer or trans people of color report they have been victims of hate crimes, the police refuse to classify it that way in 25 percent of cases, compared with 6 percent for white queer or trans victims. Police response to sexuality or gender-expression violence is clearly subject to the same racism and classism that affects law enforcement in general.
Kate Redburn, "Hate on Me"
I really recommend this concise piece on why anti-hate crimes legislation isn't actually good for the queer community.
