Best Answer

Often enough, when people of different ethnic groups who have little or nothing are thrown together by chance, ethnic and racial hostilities have the potential to motivate hate crimes, because people who already don't have much tend to feel threatened by the presence of another group or groups. Although socioeconomic in origin, people put in competition with each other are often under much greater stress and pressure, and racial/ethnic differences also flare, making the advent of hate crimes much more likely.
