The deadly shooting at a synagogue in Poway and the allegedly deliberate collision in Sunnyvale are now both being investigated as hate crimes.
Hate crimes are up nationwide and, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center, California leads the nation when it comes to hate groups.
To top it all off, the FBI announced on Monday that they arrested a man who was planning to blow up places of worship as retribution for the attack on mosques in New Zealand.
