there is a odorous element of hate rambling in the media today. I think myself it does much more harm then good. But no amount of hate peddling on the networks would make any reasonable man or woman I know do such acts. When I look at history and read my old magazines about Teddy Roosevelt or about Taft and all the hate messages back then, It doesn't look any worse at all to me. What has changed is TV brings it into our homes where before - one had to buy the paper. I never think that messages of hate are not harmful or dangerous and people should not think hard before they say such things on TV, However nothing will stop a defective human from doing such acts with or without the message.
