America once again displayed it's exceptionalism with a mass murder of ten only 3 hours into the New Year. A truck drove through the crowd of NY Eve revellers killing 10 and injuring 30 before the driver fled firing a firearm.

Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry said in a statement, "a horrific act of violence took place on Bourbon Street earlier this morning."

In a long standing tradition thoughts and prayers were offered to the victims.

"Please join Sharon and I in praying for all the victims and first responders on scene. I urge all near the scene to avoid the area

No mention of the perpetrator being caught

Islamic or white trash terrorist?

My Pepe Le Frog cyrptocoins on the latter, but let us see.

Nothing exceptional about that. A Saudi man killed 35 people with a car at a Christmas market in Germany. A similar incident in China not so long ago.

I was just there week before Christmas. Stayed right on Bourbon Street. Bourbon Street did not impress missus. Small crowded sidewalks, smell of cigarettes, marijuana, booze, everywhere. Plus no Khmer or even Chinese restaurants on the street.

RIP all those wounded revellers. Even flawed, those people didn't deserve that.

Judgemental much?

why should, probably the most popular street know for jazz in the world, offer a Cambodian (LOL) or even chinese restaurant?



"...Even flawed..." wtf???

The USA with nearly 500 mass shootings this past year, Germany doesn't even make it to the podium.

The U.S. recorded 491 mass shootings as of Dec. 18—the lowest number since 2019, which saw 414—marking a 25% decline in mass shootings from last year and a nearly 30% decline from 2021, which saw the most mass shootings in the last decade.

That's a quite sad comment to read.
True though, it's becoming almost usual, at least expectable.

The attacker identified as a 42 year old US born citizen and U S Army veteran from Texas. Mr Shamsud Din Jabbar graduated from Georgia State University with a degree in Computer Information Services in 2017.

Along with firearms, improvised explosive devices and a ISIS flag were found in the truck.
Investigators believe he did not act alone.

The death toll now stand at 15 with dozens injured.
