The Desire area is not desirable.

The strict gun laws in New Orleans have a steep price and the debts are paid with the blood of our youth.

Don’t ever go to NOLA over Thanksgiving Weekend unless you have a deathwish.

“NOLA - one more democrat hellhole with strict gun control laws that give advantage to criminals.”

New Orleans falls under restrictive Louisiana Gun Laws and Louisiana has a Democrat governor. There may be no hope to get Louisiana in compliance with the Second Amendment.

In Trump's second term we can start fine tuning 'Make American Great Again'... and that will include fixing democrat hellholes around the country.

Always reminds me of A Streetcar Named Desire, fabulous 1951 movie with young Marlon Brando...But even back then, Desire was a crummy neighborhood.

Blanche Dubois’ famous line, “I have always depended on the kindness of strangers.” suggests Hillary and her millions.

But I digress. NOLA has a long way to go to catch Chicago

Yep. And that’s why we need to hold on to our guns to use for white liberal facist control, or as like like calling it, abortion in the 30th and up trimesters!

And somehow leftists will come out and claim this is the fault of law abiding gun owners in the suburbs.

Leftists live in the Bizarro world.

When you’re doing a drive-by, only a black Cadillac will do.

But ol’ Marlon Brando just HAD to reveal Blanche’s unseemly past to Karl Malden. #BadBoysBadBoysWhatYouGonnaDo

If you’re a beautiful and drunk woman, strangers are too kind.

Upon reflection, I trusted far too many...and paid the price.

These daze it’s darn near impossible for me to have a modicum of trust for anyone.
