One year ago, Katherine Massey, one of the 10 killed in the Buffalo shooting, penned a letter advocating for more federal regulation of firearms.
“There needs to be extensive federal action/legislation to address all aspects of the issue,” she wrote. “Current pursued remedies mainly inspired by mass killings – namely, universal background checks and banning assault weapons – essentially exclude the sources of our city’s gun problems. Illegal handguns, via out of state gun trafficking, are the primary culprits.”
Massey was also a member of We Are Women Warriors. Grant founded the group, which provides information to aid and educate families and the community on socio-economic, environmental, and criminal justice issues. “Any life has worth and loss of any life is really bad for the family and the community and the City of Buffalo,” Grant said. “But to lose such a fighter, someone who was so eloquent … to lose that voice.”
