You created the commission (independent panel) which prepared recommendations on reconnaissance community reform. You intend to decide on new measures for control of intelligence (security) services in January, 2014.
I would like to draw your attention to another important aspect of the activities of intelligence services and law enforcement in the United States.
“Fact: 31,000 people died from gunshot wounds last year (2012) year – 19,000+ suicides, 11,000+ homicides and 800+ accidents. More children drowned in backyard pools than died from guns.
Fact: 90% of all gun deaths involve a handgun. The “official” figures tend to over-count long guns because many death and crime reports do not actually describe the type of weapon.
Fact: 50% of gun suicide victims are white males, age 30-50, most legal gun owners.60% of gun homicide victims are African-American males, age 17-30, most shot by other African-American males using illegal guns.”

I believe that one of the most important causes of massacre and suicides is an illegal, brusque collection of information and reintervention in the private life of U.S. citizens by some staff of law enforcement and intelligence services and the related informants, provocateurs. I wrote about this in an article entitled “What causes massacre in the United States?” in Russian and I published it online in April-May 2013.
