The Guardian: Racial Violence in America on the Upward Curve

Pak Sahafat – The Guardian newspaper; the rise of racially motivated crime, which has risen sharply in recent years in the United States, is considered the darkest part of the Internet.

According to Pak Sahafat News Agency on Monday; The London-based newspaper The Guardian added that the story of the massacres, from Charleston to El Paso, from Pittsburgh to San Diego, and from Christchurch, New Zealand, to the latest case in Buffalo, New York, was as nauseating as the common threat to white supremacy.

The problem, exacerbated in recent years, is mostly rooted in the darkest parts of the Internet and nurtured and eagerly absorbed by all who want to turn this misleading ideology into violence.

The US Federal Bureau of Investigation last year (2021) announced that the rate of hate crimes reached its highest level in 12 years, mainly in the form of attacks on black, colored and Asian citizens in the country.

U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland has been forced into domestic terrorism and hate crimes in the wake of the thousands of violent hate-based attacks that occur each year, and despite the growing public attention to the Buffalo massacre and other similar incidents.

At the same time as the investigation into the details of the killing on Saturday at the Tops Friedley Market shopping center, which had 10 victims, there is almost no doubt as to the motive of the killer.

The perpetrator of the crime, 18-year-old Python Gondron, an armed white man who seemed to be under the influence of extremist and radical indoctrination of extremist hypotheses widely circulated on the Internet, entered the black neighborhood fully armed and determined to kill as many as possible.

The suspect allegedly wrote a racist insult on his assault rifle before launching a live broadcast of the attack on customers, employees and the guard of a grocery store.

Local officials say he also posted a statement on social media with repeated references to a white racist hypothesis that justified what they said was a hate crime and racist-motivated violent extremism.

US President Joe Biden, along with dozens of high-ranking politicians and leaders of minority and civil rights communities, immediately expressed outrage at the incident and called for more action to end and escalate racial hatred crimes.

In addition to Saturday’s Buffalo incident and another 2019 gun attack with 21 casualties in Alposo, Texas, there have been numerous other shootings by unarmed extremist assailants. The attacker was Walmart El Paso, a 21-year-old white man who in a cyber message described the attack as a reaction to the Spanish-speaking invasion of Texas.

Four years ago, a white supremacist attack on a black church in Charleston, South Carolina killed nine people. A white man killed 11 people and wounded six others in October 2018 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown on Sunday; He called the attack a turning point for the city and called for the monitoring and control of firearms and the cessation of hate speech on the Internet and social networks.
