Barrack Obama urges lawmakers to take action as he addresses Mass Shootings in Dayton, El Paso

By -

Barack Obama has called on lawmakers to take action following the weekend mass shootings in El Paso, Texas, and Dayton, Ohio which left 31 people dead and many others injured.
In a statement released via his Twitter page on Monday, August 5, the former US president said Americans "should soundly reject language coming out of the mouths of any of their leaders that feeds a climate of fear and hatred or normalizes racist sentiments."
Obama did not mention President Donald Trump by name in his statement but he denounced language from "leaders who demonize those who don't look like us, or suggest that other people, including immigrants, threaten our way of life, or refer to other people as sub-human, or imply that America belongs to just one certain type of people."

A newlywed couple have become the couple with the most short-lived marriage after they divorced just 3 minutes after getting married. Only seconds after they signed their marriage contract in a courthouse, the wife tripped and the groom called his new wife 'stupid' for tripping over. In tears, the bride demanded an annulment. Local media reports that the judge officiating the ceremony dissolved their marriage on the spot. They had only been married for three minutes and this leaves them with the shortest partnership in Kuwaiti legal history . Reacting to the divorce following what is now being referred to as the shortest marriage, social media users defended the woman and said it was no use wasting her time with a man who has no respect for her. One wrote: If this is how he acts right at the beginning, it’s better to leave him. Another wrote: A marriage with no respect, is a failed one right from the beginning.
