Biden Does What Trump And Republicans Won’t By Denouncing White Supremacy After Jacksonville Shooting







President Biden responded to the racially motivated Jacksonville taking pictures by denouncing white supremacy in the USA.

President Biden stated in a press release supplied to PoliticusUSA:

On Saturday, our nation marked the 60th Anniversary of the March on Washington — a seminal second in our historical past and in our work in the direction of equal alternative for all Individuals. However today of remembrance and commemoration ended with yet one more American neighborhood wounded by an act of gun violence, reportedly fueled by hate-filled animus and carried out with two firearms.

Yesterday in Jacksonville, Florida a white gunman went on a taking pictures rampage at a retailer close to a Traditionally Black College and killed three Black people. Whereas we nonetheless must be taught extra concerning the motivation for Saturday’s taking pictures, regulation enforcement has opened a federal civil rights investigation and is treating this incident as a attainable hate crime and act of home violent extremism.At the same time as we proceed looking for solutions, we should say clearly and forcefully that white supremacy has no place in America. We should refuse to dwell in a rustic the place Black households going to the shop or Black college students going to highschool dwell in worry of being gunned down due to the colour of their pores and skin. Hate should have no secure harbor. Silence is complicity and we should not stay silent.

Jill and I are praying for the victims and their households, and we grieve with the individuals of Jacksonville.

Republicans gained’t say what Biden stated. Donald Trump’s Republican Occasion refuses to denounce white supremacy. Trump has stated nothing concerning the Jacksonville taking pictures the place a white man traveled to a Greenback Basic Retailer and shot three black individuals earlier than taking pictures himself.

Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy was requested concerning the taking pictures on CNN’s State Of The Union and he blamed racism on the media:

Republicans don’t wish to speak about racism. They wish to fake that racism doesn’t exist or that it’s created by Democrats, universities, and the media. Of their view, racism may by no means be linked to their get together or their get together chief’s rhetoric. America can’t remedy its issues if Republicans refuse to acknowledge that they exist or speak about them.

The selection isn’t about Democrats versus Republicans, however actuality versus fantasy.

President Joe Biden is the reality-based choice for the presidency in 2024.
