One of the kids there, according to the police, will never walk again. Especially obscene that this happened at “Bunny Friend Park”. I’ve got to believe that the police in NO turned that neighborhood upside down and made lives miserable for gang members until someone coughed up a name.
Something similar happened close to me. A well known “good guy”, middle aged, was sitting in stands watching a neighborhood basketball game when he was randomly shot dead. Nobody saw nuffin. The police can only do so much. Don’t the people in that neighborhood think that black lives matter? If they themselves don’t, why should we? This is a serious question.
The non-reporting by the media indicates that they also don’t believe “black lives matter”...
And that's why the same crap keeps happening over and over and over again.
In my EMS days, we'd respond to a stabbing or shooting in the middle of the dance floor at a local nightclub. Everyone was in the bathroom. Saturday night, 400 people in the club, and nobody saw nuffin...Once a week unless the moon was full, then two or three.
Needless to say, the place had a reputation.
We were a volunteer department, and told the management to put out the word that if any of our personnel got injured on a call to that establishment, it would be the last time we responded. They would have to wait an additional 30 minutes or more for the next closest EMS response. We never had a problem, and the police would often enter only after we arrived.
