America stands united tonight. We stand united with our President, and we support him. We stand united as a people, so the world will know we cannot and will not permit these terrorists to rob us of our loved ones. We stand united to defeat any attempts of terrorists to rob us of our freedom. We shall never surrender that freedom. We stand united in support of the men and women who serve us in the Armed Forces and who will help us achieve justice. We shall respond, and we will never forget the victims of this horrific attack.
