(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.

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.
The assault of a black Oregon college student by three white students is being investigated by a police hate crime unit and comes days after Portland police received reports of racist threats on social media, authorities said on Monday.
The 26-year-old black man was assaulted on Friday night by three white men near the campus pool at Lewis & Clark College in Portland, police said.
"The victim told police that the suspect used racial epithets before assaulting him," Portland Police Department spokesman Pete Simpson said in a statement. "The victim fought back and was able to get away and go to his residence on campus." Place your bets here

I had a friend in college. He had a lot of black friends. Actual friends they played basketball with, not just cover-story friends.
Anyway some black guys showed up at a party uninvited and jumped the fence and when thrown out came back with reinforcements. My friend said some really racist things during the fight. Seems his mind just went to 'hurt them in every way possible' and that included hurting their feelings.
Next day we ran into some of the black guys from the fight and they were cool with it. Realized they were dicks. They were pissed at one guy who used a taser during the fight but that's a different story.
Ah, the 80s, when not everything turned into lawsuits and jailtime.
I have spent a lot of time on this campus--just lived around the corner, as it were--and this is a small school. "...three white men near the campus pool..." Nah. If you're attending L & C, you're going to be able to pinpoint these "students" pretty darn quickly.

The family wants $10 million from the City of Irving and $5 million from Irving ISD for damages it claims Ahmed and the family suffered after the teen was arrested. The family also wants an apology from the two entities.
Mohamed, 14, was arrested by Irving police in September after he brought a homemade digital clock to school that was mistaken for a bomb by Irving MacArthur High School faculty. The subsequent fallout made international headlines.
Mohamed and his immediately family are now overseas in Qatar and enrolling in school after a foundation has offered to pay for his education. The letter demanding money from the city and district says that the family wants "more than anything to come home" to Irving. and nothing says "I love my city" like threatening to file suit against them
The letter gives both the city and the district 60 days to pay up or else face a lawsuit.

It was *not* a homemade clock - it was a radio-shack inserted into a briefcase. He did not 'invent' or 'create' anything - except a hoax bomb he 'set off' during english class.
Charge them as terrorist for building a hoax-bomb (which is what it really was).

Mohamed the clock-faking cuckoo
Now plans for his flock to make beaucoup:
"New project! Enrich us
For being suspicious
Of creepy young Muslims who spook you."

If I use a fake gun in a robbery, do I get away with not being charge with 'armed robbery'?
In most jurisdictions, there does not have to be an actual application of force in order for a theft to be considered robbery. It is usually sufficient if the victim believed that they would be harmed if they did not cooperate.
Thus, most courts would consider the use of a fake weapon to be armed robbery. However, it is essential that the victim reasonably believes that the weapon was real and not fake. Also, if a toy gun is used to strike a victim during a robbery, then it actually becomes a weapon for legal purposes. - cite

Just saying. Be polite

Threatening lawyers is unwise, not to mention actionable. Would sending them a printed circuit board with a battery pack attached, that goes "tick-tick-tick", be considered a "threat" to any reasonable person?
