An 8-year-old girl and her parents spoke exclusively with ABC station WKBW about the moment shots rang out at the Tops grocery store in Buffalo, and the terrifying uncertainty of each other's locations as they hid in a cooler at the back of the store.
However, experts on hate in the U.S. said this most recent mass shooting highlights how little the country has done in reckoning with the growing danger of white supremacy in this country.
Radicalization can occur anywhere and without a particular group or organization to belong to thanks to the internet and the normalization of hateful rhetoric in media, experts said. It's given right-wing extremism an environment to thrive and grow. However, Jones said the federal government needs to do a better job collecting and releasing data on domestic terrorist attacks and plots and informing Americans about the severity of right-wing extremism.There is no public release of such information, he said, which has made it very difficult for Americans to understand the gravity of this problem.
"As long as very wealthy people are willing to exploit these feelings of anger in the country, this is going to keep happening," Hayden said.Members of the Buffalo Police department work at the scene of a shooting at a Tops supermarket in Buffalo, New York, May 16, 2022. For example, experts say America's gun violence problem has only made racist violence more deadly. White supremacy has been the motive behind several fatal mass shootings in recent years, past ABC News reporting shows. Experts recommend gun control efforts as a potential solution to deadly extremism.
