Nobody should be shocked with the information listed in this post and if you are, more than likely you're part of the problem, and you should start doing some self reflecting.
Hate crimes rose 20% in 9 metropolitan areas in 2016. The researched areas include: New York; D.C.; Chicago; Philadelphia; Montgomery County, Maryland; Columbus, Ohio; Seattle; Long Beach, California; and Cincinnati. Here are the statistics:
Researchers believe the increase stems in large part from the election. Bias crimes increased in cities around the country after the election and the trend has continued into this year. Side note: uh duh, but we'll get into that later. Bias crimes, include crimes against Muslims, the Jewish, the LGBTQ community, etc. Again, nobody should be shocked by these findings. When the electoral college (the people elected somebody else, always remember that) elected the Supreme Hater in Chief after running a campaign based purely on hate and prejudices, what did people really expect to happen? He's sitting in the most sacred house in the country after all the disgusting and vile things he said, so why wouldn't that make the next racist feel comfortable coming out their mouth with some vile ish? And if they're too coward to stand in their truth and say what they really think, why would they think twice about calling in a bomb threat to a Jewish Center? Why would they think twice about desecrating a synagogue? He got away with it, so of course these people are going to think they can do the same.
