Obama Responds to Mass-Shooting at Black Lives Matter Protest


Barack Obama’s official statement regarding last night’s mass shooting of nearly a dozen police officers is in. Read it below:

Early Friday, President Barack Obama addressed the shooting in Dallas, TX that has resulted in deaths of at five police officers at a Black Lives Matter protest.

“My team has been keeping me updated throughout the morning of the evening in Dallas. I spoke this morning with Mayor Rawlings of Dallas to convey the deepest condolences of the American people. I told him that the federal government will provide whatever assistance Dallas may need as it deals with this tremendous tragedy.

We still don’t know all the facts. What we do know is that there has been a vicious, calculated and despicable attack on law enforcement. Police in Dallas were on duty, doing their jobs, keeping people safe during peaceful protests. These law enforcement officers were targeted, and nearly a dozen officers were shot. Five were killed. Other officers and at least one civilian were wounded — some are in serious condition, and we are praying for their recovery.”

It’s a shame that statements such as this are so few and far-between for our president. Perhaps, if he had shown more restraint in his previous statements against the police, he wouldn’t have had to make these comments at all.
