1. Hate crimes:

All statistics, indicate, we have observed, a significant increase, in the number of hate crimes, committed, in the United States. Is this, a mere coincidence, or a ramification of Mr. Trump's appeal, to his political base, and core supporters? As Leon Jethro Gibbs, the fictional character, in the television show, NCIS, often proclaims, I don't believe in coincidences. While I feel, occasionally, something might, indeed,

be a coincidence, when it continues, several more times, it isn't so! Crimes committed, against many ethnic groups, including Jews, Muslims, and several minorities, have continued, to increase, significantly. In addition, in nearly every mass shooting/ killing, in past year, has been committed, by individuals, who identify themselves, as, so - called, Far Right, philosophies and orientations.
