Biden calls to end domestic terrorism

US President called against the incident of shooting at the supermarket. He also expressed his condolences towards families of those ten people who died in the incident.

In a White House statement, Biden said: “We grieve for the families of ten people whose lives were senselessly taken and everyone who is suffering the physical and emotional wounds of this horrific shooting. We are grateful for the bravery of members of law enforcement and other first responders who took immediate action to try to protect and save lives. The First Lady and I are praying for the victims and their families, and hearts all across this country are with the people of Buffalo.”

He added, “Any act of domestic terrorism, including an act perpetrated in the name of a repugnant white nationalist ideology, is antithetical to everything we stand for in America. Hate must have no safe harbour. We must do everything in our power to end hate-fueled domestic terrorism.”

The gunmen live-streamed the incident, according to reports.

Mass shooting is an alarming problem in the US. Biden unveiled steps to stop gun violence on April 11, that included stopping the proliferation of ghost guns and a comprehensive report on gun trafficking.
