Kansas shooting: Inaction against racial attacks breed hate crimes in US
The election of Donald Trump as the 45th President of the US has emboldened the far-Right in the country. There has been an increase in the number of hate crimes against minorities, immigrants, Muslims etc. The latest in the list is the killing of an Indian at bar in Kansas.
Hundreds of thousands of immigrants and minorities are reeling under the fear that their lives are under constant threat from some gun wielding psychopaths.
Since Trump launched his election campaign last year, the anti-Muslim hate groups in US increased by 197 per cent in number, according to a study by US-based Southern Poverty law Centre. The increase was from 34 to 101.
Meanwhile, its report on hate groups in the US revealed that there are at least 100 white nationalist groups, 99 neo-Nazi groups, 52 anti-LGBT groups and 43 neo confederate groups. There are also 100 general hate groups, 21 Christian identity radical groups, 193 black separatist groups, 78 racist skinheads and 130 white supremacist Ku Klux Klan groups. All have registered steady growth in the last three years.
