Hate is a strong and fierce reaction that is a
learned response. "To hate is to refuse to accept
another person as a human being, to diminish
him, to limit your own horizon by narrowing
his, to look at him - and also at yourself - not as
a subject of pride but as an object of disdain
and of fear..."
- Excerpt from The Oslo Declaration


Because someone looks different than another,
it causes fear and irrational behavior leading to
hate.
Because one does not understand another
culture it causes another to seek out and
destroy that culture and put his/hers in place
because of hate.

frontiers, neither racial nor ethnic. Hate is
contagious. Wearing different masks, it can be
found among all religions and social
communities.”

Many things are said and done in the name of

hatred of Jews and African Americans shot and
killed a security guard this week (June 10) at the

The incident left hundreds questioning why an
elderly man would go into a museum and begin
shooting; especially with children present. The

He thought “all Jews were evil” (Syeed & Espo).
Allowing his resentment to fester until he
committed the ultimate act, murder.

“The FBI is implementing changes to collect
additional data for crimes motivated by a bias
against a particular gender or gender identity,
as well as for hate crimes committed by or
directed against juveniles”(Hate).
Society is falling apart because hate crimes are
now being committed by younger people.

The ironic statement contradicts what many
believe to be false; hate should be the opposite
of love; the antithesis of what is good in the
world.
But hate must start somewhere.

LEYDEN: Well, you know, my father the first time I ever felt real affection,
real love, kind of like a joy from my dad
was when I severely injured my cousin
in a fight that we had had. My father
came over and gave me a big hug,
kissed me on the forehead and told me
he loved me….So I started to equate
violence with love.

“Anyone who hates an individual is almost
always capable of succumbing to group hatred
or even of spreading it,” Havel warned. “I
would even say that group hatred be it
religious, ideological or doctrinal, social,
national or any other kind is a kind of funnel
that ultimately draws into itself everyone
disposed toward hatred.” (Havel)
One cannot avoid hate, but one can certainly
avoid being hateful.
