Reading some consultant's e-mails is not the Presidents' job.
Of course not when the subject is his legacy legislation. That's Obama's lack of leadership for you. But many of us, especially those of us from the Chicago area, could have told you Obama was a joke.

Gruber hardly "surrounded" either the President or Obama. Few members of Congress had ever heard of him.
Gun control and violent black behavior are two different subjects. The First Lady spewed her anti second amendment agenda, her speeches do not condemn the blacks that are killing her people.
So you're claiming that Blacks are the only people who kill with guns?
As far as Michelles' speech. Clearly you never read it or heard it.
"Because many of our children have never been to the Art Institute or Millennium Park. Many of them don’t even know that the University of Chicago exists, let alone dream of attending that university -– or any university for that matter. They haven’t strolled along Navy Pier. Some of them have probably never even seen the lake. Because instead of spending their days enjoying the abundance of riches this city has to offer, they are consumed with watching their backs.

A huge section of her speech was about how the audiences neighborhoods - BLACK NEIGHBORHOODS were not safe because of violence. The fact that you're ignorant about her speech doesn't change the content of the speech. I suspect that any comments short of KKK rhetoric demanding that blacks be strung up would not be enough to satisfy you.
The murder matters. What also matters is that it is "swept under the rug" (apparently) by this administration, which only cares about blacks being killed.
How did this administration sweep this under the rug? You seemed to have no problem finding a story on it...
If the real story is anywhere near the details on this link, then this is a hit... Not a botched robbery. Better start questioning the boyfriend.

Don't know if it's been pointed out, I get bored after a couple of pages of the same old stuff back and forth...
And take it with a very tiny grain of salt: In the comments to that article, a person states that they personally know Carrie, and that she used to date a lot of black men. They conjecture that this may be a jealous ex.
Yes, I'm aware, it's not "facts", I'm simply pointing out a possibility before we all go freaking out thinking she was shot simply for being white.
So you're claiming that Blacks are the only people who kill with guns?
No the claim is, backed up by crime statics, blacks kill more often than other groups do at least 4x the rate, blacks murder other blacks at least 9x as often as white on black. But all we here about is the very rare white on black, but crickets when it's black on white and black on black.
Two days after the Ferguson incident, a black Salt Lake City officer shot and killed an unarmed white guy...no media frenzy.
That's because there weren't the large-scale riots in SLC afterwards. The riots ballooned the Ferguson story - otherwise it would have faded away soon too.
it's not the shooting itself that was the reason for the media frenzy, it was the aftermath.
If the first thing you think of when you hear about a murder is the president..
you got issues.
Actually, the first thing they think of is--is there some ridiculous, convoluted way I can bring Obama into this and lay the blame on him? And invariably, no matter how stupid their reasoning is, they always find a way to do it. The OP (fullofnonsenseguy) is especially good at it, but he has quite a bit of stiff competition here on C-D.
Media coverage? Comments from Barack Obama? Oh, yeah. She was a White woman. Nothing to see here.
A White man was killed on July 4th on the Metro Train at 12:30pm by a Black teen - the 1st responding officer listed it as a "hate crime" racial attack in her report ...... which was quickly disavowed by the Police. The teen was arrested 2 days before the Murder for attacking another White man, charged with Felony assault and then released the next day on reduced charges by the Judge and Prosecutor.

Exactly, the government and media is white-washing black on white violent crime. Why would they do this while they push a white on black crime problem agenda?

Most murders is poor people killing other poor people. That's true among both blacks AND whites. A higher percentage of blacks are poor so their murder rate is higher as well. It has more to do with economics than race.
Also, most murders have nothing to do with race. Yes, most blacks who are murdered are murdered by blacks, but most whites who are murdered are murdered by whites. That's because the vast majority of people who are murdered are murdered by someone they know (someone in their circle of friends and acquaintances).
