Barack Obama at a recent elementary school assembly in East Texas, was talking to the pupils about gun violence. Everywhere was quiet as the president spoke.
He wanted to show the pupils how terrible the gun violence in the country had gotten so he started to clap his hands slowly once every few seconds, Then he said into the microphone,
"Children, every time I clap my hands together, a child in America dies from gun violence."
Then, little Richard Earl, with a proud East Texas drawl, pierced the quiet and said
''Well, dumb-asss, stop clapping!"
