NY Governor creates task force to battle “explosion of hate crimes”
The election of Donald Trump has, at least according to some, produced a spike in so called “hate crimes” around the nation. Others find reason to doubt this, citing instances which turn out to be hoaxes or staged events by liberals, or simply a left leaning media focus on isolated incidents which blow it all out of proportion. There seems to be little reason to doubt it in the mind of New York’s governor, however. Andrew Cuomo is stepping up to create a special task force to battle this new scourge whether it’s happening or not. (NY Daily News)
Saying right wing rhetoric has left him “soul sick,” Gov. Cuomo Sunday called for an end to the divisiveness after the presidential election, and announced the creation of a police unit to counter the “explosion” of hate crimes since the vote.
“I come to you this morning with a heavy heart,” Cuomo told worshipers gathered inside the Abyssinian Baptist Church in Harlem.
“The ugly political discourse of the election did not end on Election Day, in many ways it has gotten worse, into a social crisis that now challenges our identity as a state and as a nation and our people,” he said.
