Do you think that the election of Obama has brought out racist incidents? What can we do to stop racist hate?

I believe it. I was actually expecting it. For weeks before the election I was feeling a very negative atmosphere. A year ago someone came to our house and painted racial epithets on our car, and swastika's on a neighbor's garage door. I don't think enough is being done to combat this type of behavior. We never even got a follow up call from the police. I don't know what we can do to change things if law enforcement isn't doing anything. Sigh..........
