As someone once wrote, a bullet need happen only once, but for peace to work, we need to be reminded of its existence, again and again and again.

My fellow Americans, only we can prove through words and through deeds that we will not be divided. And we’re gonna 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 good will 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.

That’s who we are, and that’s who we always have the capacity to be. And that’s the best way for us to honor the sacrifice of the brave police officers who were taken from us this morning.

May God bless them and their families. And may God bless the United States of America. Thank you very much.”
