“My fellow Americans, only we can prove through words and through deeds, that we will not be divided and we’re going to have to keep on doing it again and again and again. That’s how this country gets united, that’s how we bring people of goodwill together. Only we can prove that we have the grace, and the character, and the common humanity to end this kind of senseless violence, to reduce fear and mistrust within the American family, to set an example for our children.” —President Obama on the attack on law enforcement officers in Baton Rouge.
