There was beautiful stain glass design of the Menorah just below the arch laminated with a soft glow of the light within.

being carried through the streets of Rome. The most prominent of the treasures is still seen clearly as a menorah, the seven-branched candelabrum with which the Jewish people are identified to this day.

When it comes to a crime, deciding if the crime was caused by a bias-motivated offender can be a challenge. Hate crime laws can be enacted but arguments arise do to the fact that many disagree on the laws and how they may violate a persons’ first and fourteenth amendment rights (Gerstenfield, 2013).
