The impression often conveyed by the media about hate crime offenders is that they are hate-fuelled individuals who, in acting out their extremely bigoted views, target their victims in premeditated violent attacks.Scholarly research on the perpetrators of hate crime has begun to provide a more complex picture, but the preoccupation of researchers with convicted offenders neglects the vast majority of hate crime offenders that do not come into contact with the criminal justice system. This book widens understanding by demonstrating that many offenders are just ordinary people who offend in the context of their everyday lives
