Violence against Americans by members of the military is a wakeup call

It's time to reassess how we care for each other and ourselves.

On the first day of 2025, U.S. Army veteran Shamsud-Din Jabbar intentionally drove a pickup truck into a crowd on Bourbon Street in New Orleans, killing 14 people before police fatally shot him. In Las Vegas later that day, authorities say U.S. Army Master Sgt. Matthew Livelsberger shot himself in a Tesla Cybertruck that exploded seconds later in front of the Trump International Hotel. Extreme acts of violence committed by Americans against Americans is cause for concern. It is also an opportunity to reassess how we care for each other and ourselves.
