christie 9-11Governor Chris Christie called for a new attitude towards law, order and one another on the morning after the murder of five police officers in Dallas, Texas during a ‘Black Lives Matter’ protest.

“Mary Pat and I are sick and heartbroken, as our thoughts and prayers are with the officers killed and injured in yesterday’s vicious shootings, along with their family and friends. The people of New Jersey mourn with the City of Dallas and the Dallas law enforcement community. Brave police officers all across this country who protect us on a daily basis deserve to be supported by all Americans. We must unite as a country and recommit ourselves to law and order, safety for our citizens and respect for each other and reject the hatred and violence behind these attacks,” said Christie in a released statement.

In October during his presidential campaign, Governor Christie criticized the Black Lives Matter movement, saying it “calls for the murder of police officers.”
