  • Associated Press 10 dead, suspect arrested in mass shooting at supermarket.

    What do you all think about this? This sounds like a hate crime to me. I wonder when black people will get a hate crime bill passed in our favor.

    A gunman wearing military gear and livestreaming with a helmet camera opened fire with a rifle at a Buffalo, New York, supermarket in what authorities called “racially motived violent extremism,” killing 10 people and wounding three others Saturday before he was arrested, authorities said. Police officials said the gunman, who also wore body armor in addition to military-style clothing, pulled up Saturday afternoon and opened fire with a rifle at a Tops Friendly Market, adding the shooting was streamed via a camera affixed to the helmet. Gramaglia said the gunman shot four people outside the store, and three of them died.

      He had the n-word transcribed on his rifle, posted on racist 4/5chan, believes in the replacement theory, is anti-Semitic, and went directly to a neighborhood/supermarket that is about 95 percent black; this is a hate crime. This demon even live streamed on Twitch.

      The media can't spin this as mental illness, because he literally says he's in his right mind in his manifesto. He's just a hate filled demon, that was taken alive by the police (lol of course he was).

      One year of mistreating the Asian community and they receive federal hate crime protection. We, have suffered since the inception of this country, and we still have zero protections. Sounds about white.

            This 18 year old was not mentally ill or anything at all when he decided to go and shoot black residents in black neighborhoods. Also, he didn't target anyone else. In my opinion, he should get the death penalty.

            Buffalo Shooting Suspect Targeted Black Neighborhoods and was Previously Investigated for Violent Threat
            • Byron Brown

            This image provided by the Erie County District Attorney’s Office shows Payton Gendron. Authorities say the white 18-year-old who killed 10 people at a Buffalo supermarket during a rampage that targeted Black people had previously made a threat at his high school. But they say Gendron was never charged with a crime and had no further contact with law enforcement after his release from a hospital.More
            The white 18-year-old who shot and killed 10 people at a Buffalo supermarket had searched for the demographics of the local area ahead of the shooting, reported the Associated Press. Reports say he picked out Buffalo because of its high ratio of Black residents and even arrived a day in advance.


            Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown offered more information on the suspect, Payton Gendron, at a news conference Sunday. The investigation found Gendron’s motives were rooted in a racist ideology that the US should only belong to white people and that Black people were mere “replacers” who need to be eliminated, per AP News.


            More from AP News:
            “This individual came here with the express purpose of taking as many Black lives as he possibly could,” Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown said.

            The document said Gendron researched demographics to select his target, and picked a neighborhood in Buffalo because it had a high ratio of Black residents.

            Gendron traveled about 200 miles (320 kilometers) from his home in Conklin, New York, to Buffalo to commit the attack, police said.

            He conducted reconnaissance on the store and the area on Friday, a day before the shooting, Gramaglia said.


            Gendron had previously threatened to carry out a shooting last year, according to NBC News. He was investigated by New York State Police for making the threat and at the time was transported to a mental health facility for evaluation.

            Buffalo Police Commissioner Joseph Gramaglia said he was evaluated and released with no charges or complaints, per NBC. At the time, he said, there was nothing for the state police or FBI to pick up now. Now, after the shooting, Gramaglia said a lengthy investigation is necessary on federal and local levels.

            “It will be prosecuted as a hate crime. This is someone who has hate in their heart, soul and mind,” he said via NBC.

            More from NBC News:
            New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said at the news conference that the suspect was investigated before her time in office and that she would look for answers into what happened.

            “I understand the First Amendment rights very well. I have no intention of impinging upon them,” Hochul said. “However, hate speech is not protected. ... There are parameters if you’re going to be inciting people to violence. That’s not protected.”


            The Gun Violence Archive reported this is to be the 198th mass shooting this year. They’ve been steadily rising since 2019.

              What this brother said was so true. America is definitely anti-black.
