Horror: Man Guns Down Top Tennessee Surgeon in Examination Room

A Memphis man gunned down a Tennessee surgeon in an exam room on Tuesday.

The killer, 29-year-old Larry Pickens, was reportedly a patient of Campbell Clinic Orthopedics and threatened one of the staffers for a week before fatally shooting Dr. Benjamin Mauck.

Pickens was charged with first-degree murder and aggravated assault, WREG reported.

According to the Collierville Police Department, Pickens pulled a gun from his waistband and shot Dr. Mauck three times in an exam room at the clinic on Poplar Avenue.

Dr. Mauck’s tragic death is a huge loss to the community.

According to The New York Post, Dr. Mauck was named on Memphis Magazine’s 2023 Top Doctor List last week.

Benjamin Mauck became an orthopedic surgeon so he could help people and change people’s lives.

He also worked as an orthopedic surgeon at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital.

Dr. Mauck is survived by his wife and two beautiful children (pictured below).

Pickens’ bail was set at $1.2 million.

The motive for the murder is unclear.

    It has been 400 years since they were brought to this country, (sold by their tribal elders through auction). It’s been 160 years since they were freed by a Republican President, (Abraham Lincoln). It’s been almost 60 years since they were granted complete equal rights. On top of that, they’ve enjoyed more “racial privileges” than any other race, including numerous “entitlements” such as FREE education, FREE housing, FREE food, FREE clothing, FREE health care, and FREE employment.

    Sidenote: Compliments of Affirmative Action, (which has been ‘law’ since 1975), if the applicant is a minority, many times they’re automatically hired to a position to fill a minority ‘quota’ mandated by the federal government, which states a company must have a minimum %age of minorities hired in contrast to the total work force. They are hired, even though (in many cases), their lack of education and/or experience, (which is many times – zero), is not even considered, and they are hired over more qualified individuals. This totally flies in the face of common sense and good, standard business practices. So, why would an employer do this? If they don’t comply by the ‘law’, they will experience a stiff fine, possible bad PR fall-out, and/or possible shut down of the company.

    Again, this has been the ‘law’ permeated ALL segments of corporate America since 1975. Result? Corporate America, from huge corporations down to small ‘mom & pop’ businesses have suffered exponentially. Minorities being placed in middle and upper-management positions w/o the education/experience has decimated many corporations…and it continues…

    In the safety sectors, (fire, police, EMS, medical), minorities are given extra points on hiring tests, and/or moved to the top of list(s) for ‘consideration’ for promotions. The result of Affirmative Action in this sector is not only poor management – it’s dangerous, and many people have died through the years accordingly.

    However, I digress…

    The institution of ‘work’ is usually never even considered, given they can exist (very comfortably) on everything which is now GIVEN to them by the wonderful bleeding hearted vote stealers of our government. Unfortunately, being given EVERYTHING needed to live isn’t enough for many blacks. Therefore, since they don’t have to work for a living, (and have all the time in the world), they commit felony crime to get whatever it is they want, (and that they don’t have). Hence: They’ll rob you in broad daylight at the subway station, commit armed robbery at the local convenience store, and break into your grandparents’ house, beating them (to death), and taking everything they worked their entire lives for – just so they can have drug money for the day. Wonderful…

    Additionally, we all now are forced to ‘celebrate’ blacks. They have all-inclusive black college’s, special holidays, and an entire month that pays special tribute to their race…and STILL, they have refused to assimilate into our culture/society each day. But instead, chose to continue playing the ‘victim’, (read: ‘Weez bein’ oppressed! Weez bein’ oppressed!”). Nothing seems to help these people. Why? Because although there are (literally) HUNDREDS of governmental agencies and charities attempting to help them – THEY REFUSE TO HELP THEMSELVES, thus are perpetual ‘victims’ forever – OF THEIR OWN CAUSING. They are the only culture on the planet that seems incapable of improving their quality of life. I feel sorry for the very small percentage that have assimilated into our culture successfully. These are the ‘black people’ who are my friends and neighbors. As for the rest of them, I’m sorry, but they’re just not like us and they NEVER will be. I refer to the rest of these ‘people’ as– NIGGERS.

    EXAMPLE:

    FACT: Although blacks don’t make up 13% of the entire U.S. population, (actual, 12.74%), they account and are responsible for, (no less than), 71% of ALL crime. (Think about that for just a second). That’s taken right from the front page of the DOJ website.

    Some snakes are deadly, others are harmless. In the wild, all snakes are avoided because it’s nearly impossible to differentiate between them. The same holds true with what I call – ‘the 13%’. I avoid them as much as possible because I don’t feel safe around them. If you don’t believe that’s a fair statement of assessment, consider this: The propensity towards violence that black people display is not cultural – it’s genetics. It’s in their genes/DNA. In other words, they’re ‘wired’ like this from birth – and there is NOTHING a civilized society can do (other than w/ proper medication), to protect themselves from such individuals. It’s an inheritance from their ancestors. African tribes eternally fighting w/ each other for HUNDREDS of years w/ no governance, no civility, and no peace. Result? You can’t go anywhere, (fast-food restaurant, carnival, or to just get a free bag of chips with my 10-year-old granddaughter), without some incident ensuing if they’re present. Why is this? Because they have no ‘skin in the game’ to speak of. No self-worth nor purpose in life. Just the propensity for violence, which is triggered w/ the least resistance to anything they feel they’re ‘entitled’ to, (which is – EVERYTHING). In addition, (and compliments of our government who coddles and strokes these animals), they’re aware they will experience (almost) no negative consequences for ANYTHING they do/say, but which results in huge negative consequences for others. All compliments of the Democrats who break EVERYTHING they touch. So much for all their awesome programs to make things “better”.

    Over one-and-a-half centuries since emancipation, trillions of dollars of free stuff, and over half-a-century of UNCONSTITUTIONAL Affirmative Action, equates that the most expensive experiment in history is a complete and utter failure. Initially, Affirmative Action was sold as a ten-year diversion from our Constitution; it’s now been SIXTY years. No matter how long or how hard we (try to) pound the square peg into the round hole, it is NOT going to fit. The experiment has failed…PERIOD. Apart from a small minority who have assimilated to a civilized culture, the majority have remained feral. It is long past time to stop fooling ourselves into thinking that all our tried and failed programs will correct this, as the evidence overwhelmingly shows – it will not.

    Reparations? How about a one-way airfare back to Africa. Throw in a Louis Vuitton purse, a carbon fiber spear, a chucking manual, a mud hut blueprint, and a heartfelt KICK IN THE ASS – DONE! There, they can continue killing each other daily, (as they do now), and we can live in relative peace.

    WE DO NOT HAVE A RACE PROBLEM. WE HAVE A PROBLEM WITH A RACE.

    More correctly, we also have a problem with the political party enabling and promoting this Third World chaos and anarchy. Bottom line? As my Father told me long ago: There are TRULY only two things you can do w/ animals – cage ‘em or kill ‘em. DONE!
