                    The Year is dead! Long live the Year!

Given that it sounds like a war zone outside, and it's not the Fourth of July
[1], there are only two reasons I can see for this:

 1. anti-police factions are holding their position against the police [2]
    or
 2. it's New Years Day and people are celebrating the start of 2015.

Frankly, given recent events, it very well could be the start of a revolution
(which won't be televised [3]; it will be Tweeted [4]) but seeing how the
calendar just flipped over, I do believe it's just the celebration of the New
Year.

Here's to 2015!
