Updated 'Hate Map' shows 2016 was 'an unprecedented year for hate' - The Orange County Register: The Alabama-based organization noted a specific rise in groups it described as “radical right wing” and anti-Muslim, including a big jump of such groups in Southern California.
Last year was “an unprecedented year for hate,” said Mark Potok, a senior fellow at the Southern Poverty Law Center and editor of the report.
Overall, the Southern Poverty Law Center found 917 hate groups in the United States, up 3 percent from 2015.
California, the nation’s most populous state, led the nation with 79 such organizations, followed by Florida, with 63, and Texas, with 55. Nearly half of the hate groups in California are local, with 35 in Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties. And Orange County saw a particularly steep jump – from three groups listed in 2015 to eight last year.
