The day after in Dallas: 'I believe this city will be better and see better days'
Several hundred people filled Thanks-Giving Square in downtown Dallas on Friday for an interfaith service hosted by dozens of clergy. A rabbi spoke, then an imam, a Methodist and a Baptist. A dozen uniformed police looked on, wearing black bars over their badges in honor of their fallen comrades. Mayor Mike Rawlings reminded the crowd when the square was erected: in 1964, a year after President John F. Kennedy was assassinated here, a bloody legacy that would haunt the city for decades. In recent weeks, people gathered in the square to mourn victims of the mass shooting in Orlando, Fla.
