Today, Former President George W. Bush and President Barack Obama spoke at the memorial service for the 5 cops who were gunned down during a Black Lives Matter rally.
It was quite a contrast.
President Obama managed to anger a lot of people by mentioning himself a million times and bringing up Alton Sterling.
Former President Bush? Not so much.
Most people seem to agree he played it the right way.
Check out these still images from the ceremony.
Powerful stuff.

You can tell how much this weighs on the Bush family.
Especially considering it happened in their backyard.
People on Twitter were moved by it as well.
Whether you liked him as president or not, these are good people https://t.co/IPQyLZLk0y
