| 2015-11-24 |
| (CNN)A shooting in a New Orleans park left 17 people injured, and police say they know there are "hundreds of witnesses" who have yet to come forward with what they know. Several hundred people -- estimates range between 300 and 500 -- had gathered at Bunny Friend Playground for an impromptu music video filming late Sunday when two groups began firing on each other, the New Orleans Police Department said in a statement. |

| #7 High body count for a single day, but at least it wasn't a hate crime. Because that would be hateful. |

| #6 The threat of the death penalty against witnesses has a strong deterrent effect against them talking to the police. |

| #5 Not sure about deterrent effect but I am awful sure it has an anti-reoccurrence effect. |

| #3 Despite all those witnesses nobody saw nuttin'. Most of those witnesses are good people, but they know the gangs are stronger than the cops, and will kill anyone who talks. Quite similar, I believe, to the situation in Syria & Iraq wrt ISIS. |

| #2 From the article- sounds like the local gang bangers showed up at a local party and crapped in the punch bowl. As usual. |
