Violence Begins at the Dais, at the Helm and the highest Echelon of Influence. Nothing else Matters.
The United States government and its various leaders, entities and allies have engaged belligerently, directly and indirectly, against untold numbers of countries throughout the world from the Pacific to Latin America and Caribbean to the Mediterranean and all across Asia and Eurasia. “Nearly 400 US military interventions” are reported to have taken place “between 1776 and 2023”— half of these operations occurring since the McCarthy era (era of the “Red Scare”); and, not surprisingly, more than a quarter occurring in the post-Cold war era (another manufactured scare era to distract, divide and suppress the US population).Thus NEGLECT

Violence Bleeds New Year’s Day HeadlinesAccompanied by Americans' usualMantra of “shock” and “prayers”
Within the first 72 hours that included the ringing in of the New Year, 13 US states, from Louisiana to Iowa (some with more than one incident) reported gun violence alone. The Gun Violence Archive on January 1, 2025, documented violence in this category in Arkansas, Colorado (2), Alabama (4), Iowa, Ohio, Louisiana (3), and Virginia. Gun Violence Archive “Last 72 Hours” January 1, 2025, https://www.gunviolencearchive.org/last-72-hours
WWL Staff January 1, 2025, New Orleans Police Department reported “Man killed on Convention Center Boulevard, suspect arrested”
“The New Orleans Police Department is investigating a homicide that left one man dead overnight. Police say the man was shot once and died on the scene. A woman also suffered a graze wound. The shooting was reported to have occurred around 2 a.m. Officers arrested one person at the scene.”

Stealing the headlines coast to coast, however, was one of the Louisiana incidents. Apparently this one involved a deadly vehicle and a firearm. One New Orleans source declared a “suspected ‘terrorism’ attack on Bourbon Street left “ten people” dead and more than thirty wounded.
“At least ten people were killed and 35 were injured after a man barreled his vehicle down Bourbon Street in New Orleans during the early morning hours of New Year's Day.” https://www.nola.com/
Things are never what they seem.
Reality, dare I say truth, is never found in hysteria or in scares. Never found in blaring screeds or viral images on the World Wide Web.
