People gather at the scene of a mass shooting at a Tops Friendly Market on May 16, 2022, in Buffalo, New York.
James said in a statement that unmoderated online platforms have become a breeding ground for white supremacy and called for these platforms to be"held accountable for allowing hateful and dangerous content" to be posted. "The Buffalo shooter was galvanized by his belief that others would be watching him commit violence in real-time," James and Hochul said in a press release."Although the platform he used to livestream his atrocities disabled the livestream within two minutes of the onset of violence, two minutes is still too much."
