"I have no criticism for the millions of Americans who have peacefully demonstrated in recent days. Their cause is beyond righteous. It is the inconsistency from leaders that has been baffling."
WASHINGTON, D.C. - Several times now, I have praised the peaceful demonstrations protesting racial injustice and the killings of black Americans. I am grateful that after several harrowing days of looting and riots, law enforcement restored order and helped these peaceful protests be heard.
