WASHINGTON, D.C. – CBC Chairman G. K. Butterfield (D-NC) issued the following statement on today’s shooting of three Baton Rouge, Louisiana police officers.
“Members of the Congressional Black Caucus offer our deepest sympathies to the families of the officers killed and injured in today’s shooting in Baton Rouge. Tensions are high in our country, but violence does not lead to justice and targeting law enforcement does not bring about solutions. The CBC continues to call for peace and we stand by state and federal officials as they investigate to find the individuals responsible for today’s horrific event.”
…as if there is nothing to the “horrific event” but the “horrific event”…why is there no statement about the cause and effect of the horrific event?…this is why no knows who the cbc is…they claim to want to stand for something but they play the business as usual card too often…
