‘Extreme’ Buffalo gunman threatened HS graduation shooting, referred for ‘mental health eval’

May 15, 2022 | | Print Article

The self-identified white supremacist accused of committing a deadly mass shooting Saturday in Buffalo, New York was reportedly investigated last June after he threatened to shoot up his graduation ceremony.

“A school official reported that this very troubled young man had made statements indicating that he wanted to do a shooting, either at a graduation ceremony, or sometime after,” an unnamed government official told The Buffalo News.

New York State Police subsequently investigated the matter and wound up referring the alleged Buffalo shooter, Payton S. Gendron, “for a mental health evaluation and counseling,” according to The News.

Speaking with the Daily Mail, several of Gendron’s former classmates described his extremely odd school behavior.

“Last year, one former student recalled, Gendron wore a hazmat suit to school for a week. She believed it had something to do with protecting himself from the coronavirus, but she didn’t rule out the fact that he was making a joke,” the Mail reports.

“There were other indications of Gendron’s fragile mental state. During a class exercise in [a] political class in which the students created their own countries with the government of their choice, Gendron’s pick was an autocratic regime that the classmate described as ‘Hitler-esque.'”

“His views were extreme. You could pick any form of government that you wanted and he picked a totalitarian government,” the classmate said.

Another classmate, this one female, said that Gendron was quiet, would “smile weirdly” and never seemed to have a girlfriend.

Despite his bizarre behavior and the investigation into his alleged threat, Gendron apparently had access to weapons.

“He was armed with a semiautomatic rifle, a hunting rifle and a shotgun which were all purchased legally,” New York Post, reported, describing the weapons that were found on Gendron following his arrest Saturday.

It’s not clear whether he bought the guns himself, or whether someone else bought the guns for him.

Caution: Disturbing Image:

Gendron was arrested outside the Tops Friendly Market grocery store in Buffalo this Saturday after he allegedly opened fire, killing 10 people and injuring three others. The majority of the victims were black.

Prior to the shooting, he published a manifesto online in which he reportedly identified himself as a white supremacist and complained about mass immigration, “white genocide,” black crime, Jews, and even Fox News.

“Mass immigration and the higher fertility rates of the immigrants themselves are causing this increase in population. We are experiencing an invasion on a level never seen before in history. Millions of people pouring across our borders, legally. Invited by the state and corporate entities to replace the White people who have failed to reproduce, failed to create the cheap labor, failed to create new consumers and tax base that the corporations and states need to have to thrive,” the manifesto reads.

“This crisis of mass immigration and sub-replacement fertility is an assault on the European people that, if not combated, will ultimately result in the complete racial and cultural replacement of the European people.”

Members of the far-left have already seized on Gendron’s anti-immigrant rhetoric to falsely link him with Fox News because of Fox News willingness to cover the often ignored issue of illegal immigration.

But as noted previously, his manifesto also took shots at Fox News:

And indeed, in his manifesto, Gendron attributed his radicalization to online sources, including The Daily Stormer, a forum specifically for white supremacists and neo-Nazis, and 4chan, a forum that tends to contain many white supremacists and conspiracy theorists.

“I started browsing 4chan in May 2020 after extreme boredom, remember this was during the outbreak of covid. … There I learned through infographics, shitposts, and memes that the White race is dying out, that blacks are disproportionately killing Whites, that the average black takes $700,000 from tax-payers in their lifetime, and that the Jews and the elite were behind this. From there, I also found other sites, like worldtruthvideos.website, dailyarchives.org, and dailystormer.cn where through data and exposure to real information I learned the truth,” the manifesto reads.

“We are doomed by low birth rates and high rates of immigration. I never even saw this information until I found these sites, since mostly I would get my news from the front page of Reddit. I didn’t care at the time, but as I learned more and more I realized how serious the situation was. Eventually I couldn’t take it anymore, I told myself that eventually I was going to kill myself to escape this fate. My race was doomed and there was nothing I could do about it.”

Instead Gendron wound up discovering the notorious Al-Noor mosque shooter, Brenton Tarrant, who killed 51 people during a terrorist attack committed in 2019, and taking inspiration from his actions …

  1. Joe Lockhart who posted above on Twitter, also sounds like a deranged person. Blaming this on Tucker Carlson and Fox News?? Get real!

  3. Years ago liberal democrats in many states decided that those with mental problems should not be placed in facilities to receive help but should, instead, be returned to their homes to be reintegrated into society. Threatening to shoot up your graduation ceremony should have qualified him for residential care and treatment. It did not. There is no stopping a crazy person but this guy was an obvious danger that was dismissed.

  4. Nothing, but a false flag programmed candidate to use guns the alphabets provided to kill black people and incite a civil war. Now if everyone could just see clearly, nothing about this makes sense and no way did he write that manifesto himself.

    This is an inside job by govt paid mind programmers and handlers to push for a reason to take away the 2nd amendment and have whites and blacks hating each other. Not going to happen if people see thru this. OBiden and CO behind it all…

  5. The race baiter in chief, Ben Crump, is out here lying again. That weapon is not an “assault rifle”. The only American made assault rifles are an M-16 and an M-4. To qualify as an “assault rifle” the weapon must have the ability to fire on full automatic It is a modern sporting rifle if it is one trigger pull for each round fired. SInce it was a bunch of blacks that were killed, Crump is going to be making himself more millions.
    And Joe lockhart is a Clintonista, and President Clinton’s white house spokesliar which means if his mouth is moving, he is lying.

  6. I make more then $12,000 a month online. It’s enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 11 to 12 hours a week from home. I was amazed how easy it was after I tried it…
    🙂 AND GOOD LUCK.:)

  7. Another way to look at this is WHO IS REALLY TO BLAME?? How could a YOUNG MAN be so messed up at such a young age? But then again – was he REALLY messed up?? Was he just PUSHED to the brink by what he saw as attacks on his race?? Now that’s no excuse to MURDER innocents, but a large part of the blame must fall on DEMOcrats and RINO’s who have INDEED PARTICIPATED in the FLOODING of ILLEGALS into the USA and also have pushed ANTI-WHITE propaganda in our Schools, Media, and Entertainment! I have to say that this was a VERY troubled young man and an EXTREMIST who took revenge on innocent people!

  8. A LOT of what he said is TRUE – UNFORTUNATELY!! BUT, that’s no excuse for the MURDERS of innocent people! This is just ANOTHER instance of someone who was KNOWN to the authorities as being “troubled”. In years past (before the DEMOcrats abolished State MENTAL Hospitals – WHY? BECAUSE most of THEIR constituents were confined and ineligible to vote) that young man would have been COMMITTED to a State Hospital for Treatment. How does someone with his MENTAL HISTORY have access to guns – at least LEGAL ACCESS?? My condolences to the victims and their Families!

  9. What;s with the stupid facediapers?
    Will the cops be checking for when this boy was indoctrinated by the CIA?
    Gawd this site sucks. It is so broken as to not be usable.

  11. This is an example what the Ministry of Truth is designed to prevent. Everything posted in the manifesto is true, so it MUST be banned.

  12. The “manifesto” looks like it was written by a Biden administration official.

    1. Very well written. Most eighteen year olds are unable to write that concisely. I wonder who the real author might be?
