via www bostonstrong com: STATEMENT FROM MAYOR MARTIN WALSH RELATIVE TO TRAGEDY IN DALLAS

“My thoughts are with the Dallas officers who were killed last night, and their families, and I’m praying for fast recovery for the injured. I unequivocally condemn violence against law enforcement officers. Whatever motivated this horrific attack, we should do all we can as a community and a nation to prevent it from inflaming existing tensions around police interactions. As Martin Luther King Jr. said, violence solves no problem but is ‘a descending spiral ending in destruction for all.’ We can and we must work together to end all the deadly violence afflicting our country.”
