Hi Everyone,
Amazing how North Korea is so yesterday's news.
Endemic gun violence in schools and on the streets in the USA continues while
the victims
are dismissed by some as actors. Before that sexual harassment and the metoo
movement and before
that the rise of the Alt-Right and the related C-town race issues riot along
with the anti-immigration regulations and deportations.
Not to mention the Russians hacking our elections that resulted in an outcome
that hardly anyone
in the USA expected. There is something to be said for bringing this stuff
to the light so it can be discussed and hopefully addressed, but who knew it
would show up
pretty much like one wave on top of another?
Anyway, I expect when all the athletics return home the NK nuclear issue will
heat up again.
Here is the write up of the systemic analysis of the "bloody nose" option our
constellation group
did in Washington DC in January. The results are not surprising except in one
regard - the lack of NK retaliation
if the military strike did occur. Please feel free to share.

Thanks Leah, Anngwyn and others who commented. This give me some more insight
to reflect upon.
I find having grown up in Australia it's easy to be so shocked by this violence
and have some strong judgements arise but my systemic intelligence knows there
is a lot more to this issue, as you have all alerted to.
Very grateful for this work.
Blessings from Australia.

Hello Everyone,
Karl-Heinz Rauscher and I did a constellation on a similar subject at the
Founder's Inn (named for our Founding Fathers ) in Virginia at the 2017 NASC
conference and it became very clear Americans, from the earliest days, equate
guns with both patriotism and freedom. For systemic reasons, this is not likely
to change anytime soon. Gun control laws without a cultural consensus, such as
there is in Australia,Canada, UK and Japan will not eliminate gun related
violence. Ask Mexico.
All for now,
Anngwyn

Greetings,
My memory is that Allison Fornes did community constellation work regarding
this particular issue a couple of years ago.
Much love to all, Susana Witte

Hi Everyone
I am from Western Australia, a new comer still establishing my work in this
field. I am wondering if anyone has done any constellation work that has
touched upon gun violence and children in America? I have been commenting on
an interesting discussion on Facebook about a video of a young American girl
who looks about 10/ 11 receiving her first rifle, it seems from her parents..
She is so overwhelmed with emotion she is in tears. The discussion was
around the culture of American families and hunting. How this girl may have
been experiencing the strong emotion due to the "gift" representing
something like a rite of passage; old enough to be trusted with her first
rifle. The recent protests in America in relation to school massacres
stimulated this topic and sharing.
I just read a 2014 Guardian article about the culture of American families
and hunting. It quotes that 3000 children die each year from hunting
accidents. A Yale University study reports 7000 children are either admitted
to hospital with serious injuries or die from hunting accidents each year in
America. These figures do not of course include street violence, domestic
violence and school massacres. If this behaviour is so strongly apart of the
family institution in America I do wonder what the roots of this are all
about. The right to bear arms and hunt freely even if it's killing and
injuring lots of children, who in fact are not living in a war zone. No
disrespect to American culture but this stuns me.
Any experiences?
Thanks
