Near the site of the supermarket shooting that claimed 10 lives, the president said that “evil cannot win” and denounced white supremacy.
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Only a short distance from where a white teenager killed 10 people inside a supermarket in a rampage apparently fueled by racist conspiracy theories, President Joe Biden urged the country to stand up against a rising tide of violent hate.
“In America, evil cannot win, I promise you. Hate will not prevail, and white supremacy will not have the last word,” Biden said during his remarks. Dr. Jill Biden stepped out of their vehicle and placed a bouquet of white flowers at a makeshift memorial just across the street from the supermarket. Then the president and the first lady stood and paid their respects.During his remarks, the president called the shooting a “murderous rampage” and labeled it “domestic terrorism.” He called on people to denounce white supremacy.
“Somebody in this crowd tell me what has changed since George Floyd? Somebody raise their hand,” David Louis, a 26-year-old resident, asked the crowd.Gendron was reportedly heavily armed with tactical gear. Buffalo Police Commissioner Joseph Gramaglia said he livestreamed his actions and used an assault weapon during the shooting.
