Donald J. Trump Statement on Dallas Police Shooting

Donald J. Trump Statement

Last night’s horrific execution-style shootings of 12 Dallas law enforcement officers – five of whom were killed and seven wounded - is an attack on our country. It is a coordinated, premeditated assault on the men and women who keep us safe.

We must restore law and order. We must restore the confidence of our people to be safe and secure in their homes and on the street.

The senseless, tragic deaths of two motorists in Louisiana and Minnesota reminds us how much more needs to be done.

This morning I offer my thoughts and prayers for all of the victims’ families, and we pray for our brave police officers and first responders who risk their lives to protect us every single day.

Our nation has become too divided. Too many Americans feel like they’ve lost hope. Crime is harming too many citizens. Racial tensions have gotten worse, not better. This isn’t the American Dream we all want for our children.

This is a time, perhaps more than ever, for strong leadership, love and compassion. We will pull through these tragedies.

We don’t need to keep using tax payer money to put these innocent guys in jail to death. We need to make sure it’s getting funneled to Planned parenthood to continue to kill the burdensome unborn. /s

Welcome to Obamaville, where hope and change was all smoke and mirrors...

Low IQ groups are very vulnerable to inflammatory rhetoric. Tell them that they’re victims and that whites are to blame, and they will act on it. They aren’t capable of rational thought. Nor do they have any kind of impulse control.

I’m part of #nevertrump, but that was really good and downright presidential.

If Trump doesn’t make clear how Obama has engineered, financed, and organized this violence, Obama will lay the blame at Trump’s feet.

That statement could also mean senseless and tragic in the way that these motorists don’t know how to act when pulled over. That’s also tragic.

I might be wrong but I believe a BLM leader and Sharpton were recently invited to the WH for a sit-down. I’m pretty sure I remember reading about the meeting online....not in the regular media.

Are there any photos of Obama greeting his fellow thugs at the White House? If so, we should plaster those pictures all over the internet.

Sounds like obamas statement yesterday Senseless deaths in La and Mn? One looks like a good shoot and there is more info coming out on the Mn shooting making it look not as bad as it first seemed Why not let the investigations play out before calling the shootings senseless? He should have just focused on the Dallas situation or pledged full investigation in to the other shootings

True. I wish he would have left it at tragic. They may make a lot of sense once the all the evidence is known. Most of these accused cops and George Zimmerman have been exonerated and in may cases by the DOJ, too.

Then you are a Hillary voter who just stated the opposing candidate, who you WON’T vote for, sounds presidential. Well just wait till Trump gets into office! This nation is screaming for leadership. We sure as hell won’t get any from Hillary.

At what point do we admit that multiculturalism is an abysmal failure?
