Sunday Reflection - A "Tough Week"
"There is sorrow, there is anger, there is confusion about next steps, but there is unity in recognizing that this is not how we want our communities to operate. This is not how we want to be as Americans. And that serves as the basis for us being able to move forward in a constructive and positive way." -- President Obama, speaking yesterday at the conclusion of a NATO meeting in Warsaw, Poland, about the "tough week" of shootings in Baton Rouge, LA, Minneapolis/ St. Paul, MN, and Dallas, TX, last week.
Unfortunately, misguided reactions like this, this, this, and this from some in the law enforcement community show that they're still not getting it and, in fact, are doing their part in making things worse.
