Buffalo Grocery Store Shooting

Everyone wants to weigh in on the Buffalo shooter.

The reality is that this man is product of his parents and his community. That’s where investigators should be looking!

If you saw the Twitch video, he shot people like he was in a video game. He had no concern for any of the people.

It’s so sad that someone would hurt strangers because of the color of their skin in 2022.

RIP Edward Roman

At 6:30 am this morning, Edward Roman parked his car on the the Verrazzano Bridge and jumped. (See here)

He was only 38 years old, from Long Island and a Corrections Officer at Rikers. The US government should have taken over Rikers a long time ago due to the poor conditions. (See here)

The coast guard rushed him to the hospital, but he died an hour later.

Prayers for Edward’s family and friends. How awful this must be for them – God please be with them.

RIP Edward Roman.
