Our hearts and prayers go out...

We must do something, we simply can't afford to do nothing.

This is a great city to live in no matter what this tragedy has brought us.

It's so surreal that it happened here.

Heal each other.

May the Lord receive you in his loving arms.

These are my brothers and sisters that served.

You are not alone.

I would like to thank all of the police officers.

We will prevail!
