Joseph "Moe" Allen, the first suspect named in connection with the mass shooting that wounded 17 people at Bunny Friend Park, was arrested on the word of a single eyewitness, according to court documents obtained Monday (Nov. 30). Allen, 32, was arrested Saturday and booked with 17 counts of attempted first-degree murder. New Orleans police said Allen was the first of several suspected gunmen identified from two rival gangs who opened fire on each other despite hundreds of people gathered in the park around 6:15 p.m. on Nov. 22. Authorities said the large crowd had gathered for an unauthorized music video shoot in the park in the 1900 block of Gallier Street.

It's because there is no money to be had from highlighting Black on Black crime in America. Protestors aren't going to risk their lives by entering crime infested neighborhoods and shouting "Black Lives Matter". And if they did, the gang banging, drug dealing, thugs who are killing other blacks could care less about their catchy slogan. They may even join in on the protest, all the while looking for an opportunity to cause mayhem. Why does that sounds familiar?

The liberal media can't wait to say it's right wingers, but when it's someone who leans left, silence.

Cue the crickets (excepting Mitch Landrieu who referred to this shooting as 'domestic terrorism). But since then not another word...

300 present and the police are having problems getting witnesses. What does that tell you.

That perhaps that neighborhood lives in constant terror...but I didn't hear any hue and cry for gun control or POTUS speaking out. Or was I asleep at the wheel last week?
