Miller cited a bogus study from LGBT advocacy group, the National Coalition for Anti-Violence Programs (NCAVP), to claim violence against transgenders was on the rise.   The NCAVP study claimed 12 people were killed in hate crimes in…

August 10th, 2015 11:06 AM
The left loves to portray the right as bigots who hate minorities, women, Muslims, and gays.

Obviously, crimes do occur that are genuinely motivated by someone’s ethnicity, religion or sexual orientation. But many are simply hoaxes committed by…
