Yes, there's plenty of science and research out there. However, unless you stay strictly within the bounds of the science and engineering, the sociopolitical ramifications will always crop up. People have opinions and they will express them, in whatever way, shape or form. The reason why this happens is that even if you list all the research and such that's been done, most people don't have the necessary background to understand much of it, so they fall back on what they know best and/or they will come at it from a political bent. Those that do understand it but also have a political bent themselves, will come from both angles.
