Who at the White House is writing President Obama's next speech about gun control and mass murder?

June 26, 2016




That's the address of the first page of the White House's official website, much of which hasn't changed for a couple of years, and for which every caption or picture could be interpreted as promoting the sexual abuse of someone.




That's the address of a New York Times article from May 22, 2016, about black-against-black gun violence in the United States.

Quotes from that article:


"'Clearly, if it's black-on-black, we don't get the same attention because most people don't identify with that.  Most Americans are white.'"

"society would not be so complacent if whites were dying from gun violence at the same rate as blacks."

"(In Cincinatti), blacks constitute 44 percent of the population but last year accounted for 91 percent of its shooting victims."

"F.B.I. statistics show that African-Americans, who constitute about 13 percent of the population, make up about half of both gun homicide victims and their known or suspected attackers."

"Some researchers say the single strongest predictor of gun homocide rates is the proportion of an area's population that is black.  But race, they say, is merely a proxy for poverty, joblessness, and other socio-economic disadvantages that help breed violence."

"'mass murder occurring in slow motion every day.'"




That's the address of a Slate article from June 12, 2016, called "15 Other Times President Obama Had To Address Mass Shootings During His Presidency."



I don't choose excerpts or supporting information for code purposes; I already published that statement at the "Preliminary page" today.
