Two teenagers who died in a shooting at an unauthorized party at Moore Park this weekend might still be alive if the park police were still operating, said Marja Lyn Broussard, president of Lafayette's NAACP chapter. Broussard said a police officer was called to a party of 200-300 youth at the park.

A no-win situation. Had the Park Police come out to break the party up it would have been reported as a racist assault on black youth, and the rioting and looting would have followed.

If the cops had been called they may have had to shoot a couple of the "partiers," but "at least it would have been legal." ~Judge Dredd
