This past weekend, there have been a number of incidents of Antisemitism, from across the US. Neo-Nazis in Orlando, snow-plow driver in Lakewood, attacks and vandalism in Chicago, tow trick driver in Boro Park, etc.
It's strange that it's coming from so many places, not just the one or two that we have (unfortunately) become accustomed to hearing such stories from.
I cannot stop thinking that perhaps there is a correlation between this and mid-winter vacation. No, I'm not one to say 'this is happening because of that,' but it still makes me wonder if the shemirah of the Torah learning weakened because so many less children have been learning Torah over the weekend.
