Hate crimes like the 54 year old man who got beaten up by a group of blacks in Illinois because he voted for Trump?

Hate crimes like the 11 year old in Texas who got beaten up by his fellow students for voting Trump in a mock-election?

Here are the "hate crimes" committed in Trump's name:

You mean this traffic altercation? http://www.snopes.com/black-mob-beats-white-man-for-voting-t...

Lots of misinformation out there on all sides.

Those too are hate crimes, and are deplorable. However I don't understand the point you are trying to make.

If Trump is expected to denounce hate crimes committed in his name, Hillary should be equally expected to do the same.
