Sometimes there are authoritive figures that participates in hate groups, and alot of teenagers just want to fit in. Sometimes just looking for acceptance from anybody.<BR/>2.

Adults try to make the teenagers feel good about joinging hate groups and encourage them that it's a good thing. They use drugs and alchohol and music to attract them. They have hate group parties that look fun to teenagers. One of the worst ways of dealing with this issue is doing nothing and igoring it. If it is ignored, the hate groups will continue to expand. The police are not sure if the crime was out of hate or not. The police departments are sending out as much negative information about the hate groups so that teenagers will not join. They try to inform the people about how bad the hate groups really are.Beranekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13731106261517404592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2401445845131091225.post-22898648696217300982008-05-28T10:45:00.001-05:002008-05-28T10:45:00.001-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.ryan3https://www.blogger.com/profile/17635694922931021664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2401445845131091225.post-38944806314960175042008-05-28T10:45:00.000-05:002008-05-28T10:45:00.000-05:001) A lot of teens who join hate groups, join becau...1) A lot of teens who join hate groups, join because they feel they don't belong anywhere.

They send emails, post blogs, send magazine subscriptions, mail, radio television and internet ads. The worst way of dealing with these is to keep silent and not do anything to stop it. Many police are reluctant to act against gay hate crimes because some states still have not legalized homosexuality at that time... now it could be getting better though.Police are trying to get people more active against these hate groups by giving them knowledge of how they work... most people join because they don't know enough of the group and join without questions.TravelTheWorldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01922759685900221740noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2401445845131091225.post-1658069046551706352008-05-28T10:39:00.001-05:002008-05-28T10:39:00.001-05:001.

Hate groups make a point out of making teens feel like they have a sense of belonging. <BR/><BR/>2) Hate groups use things like music, parties, and alcohol to attract teens to their organizations. They also try to make kids feel that no one else is giving them the respect they deserve, and claim that they will earn it through the group.<BR/><BR/>3) The ADL says the worst way to deal with the issue is to ignore it.<BR/><BR/>4) Many people claim that it is hard to label violence again homosexuals as hate crimes because we can't prove that the violence was committed because of their homosexuality. However, the more logical reason for their reluctance is that many people in America still have homophobic and anti-gay feelings.<BR/><BR/>5) Police departments are trying to learn more about hate groups and the way they communicate so that they can possible stop the violence before it happens.Noelle4https://www.blogger.com/profile/00880803890735322535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2401445845131091225.post-49881222479459507852007-10-29T11:15:00.000-05:002007-10-29T11:15:00.000-05:001: They attract kids with music and alcohol.

Many teens nowadays like violence and they think that this is the only way to solve problems.<BR/><BR/>2. I know they use hard core rock bands to attract teens. The lyrics have something to deal with their lives and gives them the illusion that they want to join the hate group. The internet is also a good source. If teens fall victom to the internet then they are in danger of falling upon the hate group web sites.<BR/><BR/>3. I am ill to hear how teens or hate group members would kill their own families for no reason except for hate. Even if the police throw those killers in jail their followers will go by their example and the violence will continue.<BR/><BR/>4. When it comes to gays the police simply do not care. They don't consider this case to be a big deal. The police prolly think they are cleaning society by letting the hate groups remove the gays in the area. That sounds wrong. The police should handle all murder cases seriously. Murder is Murder.<BR/><BR/>5. Honestly, I have no idea. Drive out the rock bands, destroy any sources of the hate groups, or remove the hate group web sites from the internet? What can they really do?Miss Makarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09665093367856810991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2401445845131091225.post-80624578488998957952007-10-29T10:48:00.000-05:002007-10-29T10:48:00.000-05:001.

They may have had a troubled childhood or one that didn't come up to everybody elses standards, so they feel like they need to do something to measure up and be like everybody else. <BR/><BR/>2. Some hate groups used music (such as rock bands) to expand their ideas, the teens that hear the music think they relate to the lyrics and thus become attracted to it, they also had a website that largely conveyed all the information on them, and since teens are very into the Internet, this targeted them. <BR/><BR/>3. One of the worst ways of dealing with the issue is by ignoring it and acting like it does not exist. So basically ignorance is the worst way of dealing with the issue. <BR/><BR/>4. If they recognize that there is a problem they cannot continue to be ignorant on the issue, they must do something about it. The police do not consider it as big of a deal if there is a hate crime against a gay person.<BR/><BR/>5. Police departments are informing teens about hate crimes and the consequences before they have a chance to join. Also the police are being much more strict on hate crimes now a days then they have in the past.A Stenlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13680114490993725262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2401445845131091225.post-86157861659657344362007-10-29T10:47:00.000-05:002007-10-29T10:47:00.000-05:001.

And they use music that supports hate and that is what attracts a lot of those teenagers, too.<BR/>Many of the young people in hate groups feel lonely and don’t feel supported by their family, that’s why they look for support and another family somewhere else.<BR/><BR/>2. The hate groups use religion to “prove” that they have the “right” to hate, they <BR/>pick some lines from the bible etc. Also, they make the teenagers feel welcome and accepted. And that’s what many teenagers are looking for, they want to be in a group to feel strong.<BR/><BR/>3. One of the worst ways of dealing with this issue is to pretend it wasn’t there. <BR/>Many people don’t think it’s that dangerous or they just don’t want to see it or think that it will disappear when they just ignore it. But by ignoring it, it only becomes worse.<BR/><BR/>4. The penalty for a hate crime is much higher than for an “ordinary” crime. And a lot of people are still homophobic.<BR/><BR/>5. They try to learn the signs of hate crimes, like graffiti or tattoos.
