New Mexico Attorney General Investigating Possible Hate Crime at UNM

by Diverse online staff , October 30, 2007

Martínez said, however, that the blogs showed “hate toward a particular community … He made some blogs about killing wetbacks and getting a garrison and getting his friends to cause harm.”

The flag incident followed recent attacks on East Indian students and harassment of Miss Indian UNM, according to The Albuquerque Tribune.

Following the flag incident, Martínez-Purson said, “Obviously, we need to have strong dialogue across campus about respect for other people and their cultures.”

Meanwhile, various Internet forums indicate dialogue has already begun, and it has not always been civil. Dailylobo.com, an independent university site, Liberty.org, described as an uncensored news forum, and freerepublic.com, all had postings about the incident.
