Does intensive media attention serve the cause of truth in showcasing hate crimes with such a public spotlight? Does politics play a negative role in assessing these problems of society? Are there deeper and more sinister motivations and whose might these be?

Politics, as practiced, is almost always a destructive influence because the objective is to destroy an opponent, to jockey for position at the expense of the opposition and gain an advantage even if others are hurt in the process. This is an invitation to exaggerate, to apply conjecture and snap judgments when thoughtful reflection and a careful inspection with heightened communication between parties could address the issue and allow a meeting of minds and a greater understanding of the true intentions behind words and deeds. This could dispel the suspicion if it were solely due to a karmic vestige of prior eras. The whole issue of racism has declined through attrition—those participating in slavery are no longer among the living. This dilution effect will serve, under normal circumstances, quite nicely to right the wrongs of the past because they become a historical relic and an artifact of culture no one would choose to embrace again. When people do so, or seem to do so, or are being labeled with those intentions, you can be sure there is something suspect at work and that there is a deeper, darker motivation causing this to happen.
