Buffalo, N.Y. Shooting: No Place for Racism and Hatred

I moved to Buffalo, N.Y. in 1988 and I've lived in WNY ever since. A search firm recruited me to be the first Vice President of Marketing for a psychiatric hospital that opened in 1955. I love the people of Buffalo and I have been highly active in my community far beyond my work in behavioral health.The murderous rampage of assault weapon violence on May 14, 2022, was brought on by an 18-year-old full of racism, hatred, indifference toward life, and a disciple of white supremacy. His violent outbursts were known to others. His parents knew about his torture and killing of animals (his mother gave him a shoebox to bury the beheaded cat). The school administrators knew of his murder-suicide ideations. The behavioral health professionals conducted a flawed psychiatric evaluation and released him back to school - the same environment that exposed his murder-suicide plans and writings.Then he came to Buffalo, N.Y. to murder as many Black people as he could. He killed 10 human beings. Please hear the tough messages in this podcast and do something to improve your community. Thank you.Send us Fan MailSupport the show
