I do feel like the article was trying to cause more friction rather than trying to find a genuine solution to a rise in Anti-Semitic rhetoric.

I thought you gave a lot of understanding to the people who hate Jews. Heaven forbit an article causes some friction amongst Jew-haters. Jews seem to be the one group in society whom it is acceptable to hate. I never thought it would be acceptable in this country for a Jewish man walking on a London street is turned back for being "openly Jewish"
by a police officer. Otr where a member of the public brings to the attention of a police officer the flying of a flag with a swastika and the police office saying, well... the use of a swastika is subjective and letting it go. Everything chips away,
