       of his peers. She feels her son is no longer safe.

       my kid like that and then actually use the word,” said Hardy.

       police.

       away and returned, asking if she had another piece of ID. Barry
       then provided her new, unused passport, which had been recently

       came back and said Mrs. Barry we will need you to sign some
       paperwork before getting your credit card back, just give us
       some time we're working on the papers and it shouldn't be too
       long. At that point I'm like, yeah, sure, do your thing, I'm

       and I was very shocked. I never ever had an issue with the law
       before. My only reaction at that time was to just cry and feel
       the injustice. The police officers asked me to stay outside
       until they finished the investigation and that process took over
       an hour."

       Peters, president of The Red Coalition. "Not only that she
       [Barry] was treated in a way that was insensitive, but it was
       also shameful. She had to pretty much take a walk of shame while
       people in the bank were looking at her as a person that was
       guilty when she wasn't."

       they have a policy that's centric to not discriminating against
       certain clients and to also be able for them to be sensitive
       towards what it means for the Black community, for a member of
       the Black community to be exposed to an experience like that. It
       is traumatic it is an experience we go through every day."

       customer for 15 years did not even have the decency to ask me
       one simple question, which could have resolved this," says

       deeply how I felt that day and want to bring justice to what

       > U.S. Representative Mike Kelly not only rashly concluded that
       it was indeed a terror attack, but also that the ‘terrorists’
       entered the U.S. through Canada.

       vehicle was from Western New York and was instead apparently

       him.

       weighed in on the event before those findings were made public,

       terrorists entering through our Northern border,” Kelly posted
       on X, formerly known as Twitter.

       spread of misinformation
       --- Quote ---

       >
       > Following this week's crash on the Rainbow Bridge — which
       closed Niagara border crossings and prompted questions about
       public safety — Niagara Region's police chief is warning the
       community about the spread of misinformation.
       >
       > "We saw an immense amount of misinformation and speculation on
       both mainstream and social media platforms, which created
       significant and unnecessary anxiety in the community," said
       Niagara police chief Bryan MacCulloch.
       >
       > "I think what we saw on Wednesday was really the speed at
       which misinformation [spreads] in today's environment of social
       media and how quickly it can spiral," MacCulloch told CBC
       Hamilton.
       >
       > He did not cite any specific sources of misinformation, but
       said there were claims of an attack, that the car had come from
       Canada and that the vehicle was filled with explosives.
       >
       > "None of that information was accurate. None of it was
       corroborated. Yet that didn't stop individuals, and in some
       cases media outlets, from putting that information out," he
       said.
       >
       > When asked what he would say to someone who doesn't trust
       police, MacCulloch said "it's unfortunate that we have such a
       divisive society right now," and that in Niagara, police work to
       be accurate.
