I waited a couple of days to comment on the Buffalo massacre at the Tops supermarket (below) in order to find the right words. They never came. So the following will have to do.

I still don't understand how so many bigoted white people think that Democrats and Jews are out to "replace" white people with native-born blacks and with immigrants. As I understand it,. immigrants don't replace anyone. The supplement us by contributing to the national culture and the nation's economic well-being. If anything, white people have historically been replaced whenever they leave a city or town owing to too many black and brown people. East Orange, New Jersey, near where I live, is one of the most heavily black towns in the state, but it was once so predominantly German it could have been called East Berlin. No one told the white people there that they had to move out when black people began moving in. They just did. Because they didn't want to live with them. And white people in other cities and towns left to get away from those same brown people, but with brown people expected to become the majority, it's suddenly become important to kill them to prevent that from happening?
This is sick. I don't normally support capital punishment, but the shooter in Buffalo is so evil that perhaps we should make an exception here. Oh yeah, he also admitted to torturing a cat to death and not feeling bad about it!
Shame on media personalities like Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity for promoting such racist attitudes, shame on the white nationalists who perpetrate such acts, and shame on the Republican Party for failing to condemn white nationalism outright. Ans shame on the voters if they reward the Republicans with both houses of Congress in the midterms because they think inflation is more important than domestic terrorism . . . which the Buffalo massacre was.
