Like a clock, every single time there is a media-hyped mass-shooting, Obama rotely returns to his podium and calls for gun bans and strict firearms regulations.

Move "like a clock" so that it follows "returned." Change "rotely" to "mechanicaly." "Mass shooting" is two words, but "media-hyped" shooting could stand alone.

It has almost become cliché.

Remove "almost."

He, of course, WILL NOT speak to the motivations of the assailants, except one time, when Dillon Root -- a true racist who happened to be photographed in front of a Confederate Flag -- and in this example, Obama spoke quite a bit about incentive, when he was not focused on gun control.

This sentence fell apart long before it ended. Let's see ... "Of course, he will not identify the motivations of the assailants. Only in the case of Dillon Root, a white supremacist who was photographed with a Confederate flag, did Obama add comments about white racism to his remarks on gun control."

Most of the rest of the attacks were motivated by Islamics who were strictly interpreting the Quran, or committed by racists in the black community who's anger was directed against Caucasians and/or police.

Most attacks are perpetrated by Moslems following the Koran. Others are attacks by black racists against Caucasians or police officers.

Here, however, Obama routinely ignores or actively covers up the motivations of the shooters.

In these situations, Obama typically ignores or obscures the motivations of the shooters.

He is greatly aided by a complaint and colluding press, who report Obama's words without questioning them or pointing out the fallacies included therein.

"press, who unquestioningly report Obama's words without remarking on his factual errors or logical fallacies.

The sequence of events have become monotonously repetitive:

... sequence ... has become ...

Shooting occurs, and within hours, Obama is calling for gun bans -- often before the nature of the attack, the identification of the attacker, and the discovery of the type and make of the firearm has even been made!

A shooting occurs. Within hours, Obama calls for gun bans, often before the attacker, the motive, or the weapon have been identified.

As always, your points are excellent. The sentences tend to be very convoluted, and you’ve gone overboard with the adverbs. Remember, if you use strong verbs, you don’t need adverbs!

Thank you!

I wish I was better, but I suck.

In your climatic paragraph, where you’ve linked the reports of various recent mass shootings, I think you need a stronger applause-line than, “Obama goes to guns.” “Goes” is a lousy verb.
