[00:00.04]A gunman killed 10 people at a food store
[00:04.08]in Buffalo, New York, over the weekend.
[00:08.00]Law enforcement officials said the gunman,
[00:11.92]18-year-old Payton Gendron, drove over 300 kilometers
[00:17.48]from his home to Tops Friendly Market.
[00:21.04]They said that Gendron, a white man,
[00:25.40]searched for and targeted the largely Black neighborhood.
[00:30.72]Gendron shot 13 people.
[00:33.80]All but three of them died.
[00:36.20]Eleven of the shooting victims were Black and two were white.
[00:41.92]Officials say they are studying a 180-page document
[00:47.72]published online believed to be written by Gendron.
[00:52.04]The document describes plans for the Saturday attack in Buffalo.
[00:57.96]It also makes note of other racist shootings,
[01:02.08]including the 2015 attack at a Black church in South Carolina
[01:08.44]and the killings at two Muslim religious centers in New Zealand in 2019.
[01:16.28]The document describes a racist ideology that believes
[01:21.48]the United States belongs fully to white Christians.
[01:25.84]People of all other races and religions, the document says,
[01:31.04]are "replacers" who should be removed by force or terror.
[01:37.16]The ideas come from what is known as "The Great Replacement Theory."
[01:43.80]People who follow the theory believe that there is a plot
[01:48.08]to reduce the influence of white people
[01:51.08]in the United States and other Western countries.
[01:54.60]Believers say the plan will be achieved
[01:58.32]through immigration of non-white people into the U.S.
[02:02.92]and the higher birthrate among minority groups.
[02:07.08]Some followers believe Jewish people
[02:10.04]are behind the so-called replacement plot.
[02:13.68]When white supremacists marched in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017,
[02:20.32]they shouted "you will not replace us" and "Jews will not replace us."
[02:28.76]Mark Pitcavage is senior researcher
[02:31.64]at the Anti-Defamation League Center on Extremism.
[02:36.28]He said the more extreme believers look up
[02:39.80]to white supremacist mass killers like the shooters who carried
[02:45.36]the attacks in South Carolina and New Zealand.
[02:49.96]They believe small societal changes will not do much,
[02:54.52]so the only solution is tearing down society – in this case, killing.
[03:00.88]The Buffalo shooter's alleged writings and some of his methods
[03:05.20]appeared to follow the New Zealand shooter.
[03:08.48]Gendron livestreamed the attack, just like the shooter
[03:13.44]who attacked mosques in New Zealand.
[03:16.48]Gendron marked the number 14 on his gun.
[03:20.56]Pitcavage said 14 is shorthand for a 14-word white supremacist slogan.
[03:28.80]The New Zealand shooter posted a widely read document online.
[03:33.48]If the 180-page document from the Buffalo shooter is real,
[03:39.16]it seems he wanted to spread his beliefs
[03:42.12]and methods to a larger audience.
[03:46.08]In a public opinion study released last week,
[03:49.80]The Associated Press and the NORC Center
[03:54.24]for Public Affairs Research found that about 1 in 3 Americans
[03:59.76]believes an effort is underway to replace U.S.-born Americans
[04:04.92]with immigrants for electoral gain.
[04:07.96]The same number of people also express concern
[04:12.36]that an increase in immigration is leading to native-born Americans
[04:17.72]losing economic, political, and cultural influence.
[04:22.16]Both concerns are arguments behind the Great Replacement Theory.
[04:28.36]The idea that those killed at the Tops Friendly Market
[04:32.72]lost their lives because of the shooter's racism is "sick,"
[04:38.04]said 29-year-old Steve Carlson.
[04:41.60]He is Black and grew up knowing one of the shooting victims.
[04:46.72]"It's not right. You don't pick what ethnicity you're born into," Carlson said.
[04:53.08]"These people were just shopping,
[04:55.40]they went to go get food for their families."
[04:59.08]At Buffalo's State Tabernacle Church of God in Christ,
[05:03.92]Pastor Russell Bell said he could not believe
[05:08.00]what had happened over the weekend.
[05:10.96]"I don't understand what that is,
[05:13.68]to hate people just because of their color,
[05:16.76]to hate people because we're different.
[05:19.52]God made us all different.
[05:22.00]That's what makes the world go 'round," he said.

END OF TRACK. "END OF TRACK." The two men bowed. "Whoever was that person you were talking to?" she enquired, as soon as they stood together. The took of triumph faded from her eyes, she had grown worn and weary. The roses were wilting on the walls, the lights were mostly down now. Hetty, looking in to see if anything was wanted, found herself driven away almost fiercely. I only saw Master Jervie once when he called at tea time, The year 1747 was opened by measures of restriction. The House of Lords, offended at the publication of the proceedings of the trial of Lord Lovat, summoned the parties to their bar, committed them to prison, and refused to liberate them till they had pledged themselves not to repeat the offence, and had paid very heavy fees. The consequence of this was that the transactions of the Peers were almost entirely suppressed for nearly thirty years from this time, and we draw our knowledge of them chiefly from notes taken by Horace Walpole and Lord Chancellor Hardwicke. What is still more remarkable, the reports of the House of Commons, being taken by stealth, and on the merest sufferance, are of the most meagre kind, sometimes altogether wanting, and the speeches are given uniformly under fictitious names; for to have attributed to Pitt or Pelham their[112] speeches by name would have brought down on the printers the summary vengeance of the House. Many of the members complained bitterly of this breach of the privileges of Parliament, and of "being put into print by low fellows"; but Pelham had the sense to tolerate them, saying, "Let them alone; they make better speeches for us than we can make for ourselves." Altogether, the House of Commons exhibited the most deplorable aspect that can be conceived. The Ministry had pursued Walpole's system of buying up opponents by place, or pension, or secret service money, till there was no life left in the House. Ministers passed their measures without troubling themselves to say much in their behalf; and the opposition dwindled to Sir John Hinde Cotton, now dismissed from office, and a feeble remnant of Jacobites raised but miserable resistance. In vain the Prince of Wales and the secret instigations of Bolingbroke and Doddington stimulated the spirit of discontent; both Houses had degenerated into most silent and insignificant arenas of very commonplace business. "It certainly will be. Miss Widgeon," answered Maria, with strictly "company manners." "One who has never had a brother exposed to the constant dangers of army life can hardly understand how glad we all feel to have Si snatched from the very jaws of death and brung back to us." "Just plug at 'em as you would at a crow, and then go on your way whistlin'?" persisted Harry. "Hurroo!" echoed Hennessey; "that's the ticket." "Come forward, keeper," continued the baron, "and state how these arrows came into your hands!" "Yes." HoMEJULIA京香2018下载
