Hitler was someone’s son. Don’t judge him.

See how silly that sounds when taken to the extreme?

None of my bad choices have ever been to steal my mothers wallet and live on the streets for years.

Neither have most peoples.

Relativists like you are really just enablers.

Well, you obviously lack the capacity to explain to me where I might be wrong...suggesting to me that you are ill-equipped to tell me that I do not know what I am talking about.

She was a bad person.

Her bad choices were to treat her parents like garbage, and to waste all the opportunities and luxuries she was given by loving parents and a generous God.

Many, many people grew up with much less and became kind, considerate and helpful people.

She was selfish, cruel and destructive instead.

Evil people like her are the cause of most of the suffering in this world.

She hated and mistreated the people who loved her unsparingly.

Just because someone recognizes evil as evil does not mean that he thinks he himself is perfect.

We are all sinners - but that doesn't mean we should pretend that vicious behavior, our own or anyone else's, is acceptable behavior

Hopefully your children in college will be able to teach you English above a fifth-grade Twitter user's level.

I'm an adult who has lived his whole life in the big city.

I have known many drunken bums - unfortunately some personally.

I know her just as well as you do, and unlike you, I can consider her case rationally.

Let's say you knew her personally, and your dogged and irrational defense of her were based on specific knowledge instead of blind, self-righteous Pollyannaism.

Why was she right to treat her parents like garbage? Why was her behavior good, and worthy of imitation? What are the secret justifications for living as a drunken parasite?

Enlighten us as to why we should admire this user.

Since exercising judgment is repugnant to you, do you think we should abolish courts and juries?

hey, Mr. Wideawake - I think you have been wide awake enough and need some shut-eye. I'm allowed to show compassion and heartache for a lost soul and for a grieving family without explaining it beyond what you can understand. Sorry you have known drunken bums....so have I...personally. Doesn't mean I'm getting out a big ol' paintbrush and painting them *all* as 'useless'.

Goodnight.

What is the purpose of this article?

I have plenty of empathy, just not for a spoiled princess who chose poorly...

Bullshit

There is a generation between those two groups and NOLA cops were hard on longhairs

I lived it as a kid

What a teenaged response

I don’t have any yazidhis living in my house either but I have empathy for them

Ditto holocaust victims

But I do have white victims of black violence in my family...does that count yer majesty?

What I have always found pissy about this joint is how tuff talk jerks here are about the misfortune of others regardless

It smells to me the notions of young turds who haven’t lived much or bitter old lonely farts whose life passed them by

You think I’m soft come see me

Unlike you I’m a public freeper

I have only lived here for a about 14 years but it is the longest time I've ever lived anywhere in my life.

The first time I went to New Orleans there were hippies all over the French Quarter. Gradually The hippies started to fade out and the hipsters took over.

Busted

down on Bourbon street

Setup

like a bowling pin

Knocked down, it get's to wearin' thin.

They just won't let you be, oh no.

Moving around most of my life and then going in the service I can say there is no place like Southeastern Louisiana. I've adopted well to this culture.

My kid is far from perfect.

My wife and I are giving my daughter a base to build a wonderful future. What she does with that base is completely up to her. If she takes the path of the girl in the article we would choose not to waste our life savings hoping that she would come to her senses. Once she is an adult she will be completey responsible for her own path.

Why shouldn't I make judgments?

She was a sad excuse for an adult.

She was someone's daughter...making bad choices...as we ALL have

Oh yawn. How liberal of you. So from your POV the bad choice of taking underwater basket weaving is the same as the bad choice of being a bum?

It is cute the way you try to make excuses for this woman and her parents who enabled her bad choices but sorry, no.

I think you’re confusing bums and rainbow tribe with hippies

I grew up 120 miles north and it was our city from when the Sugar bowl was metal and great

The Warehouse was open

Jax made beer

Cops in the Quarter were all white and Huey Long was two lane and scary

No interstate and the airport was still mostly Lakefront because MSY was brand new

And Commanders Palace had an ice cream parlor next to it and the cemetery was patina but weeded and clean

The big wooden roller coaster was still operating at Ponchatrain

Fat City....boring ... was still some kind of hope to clean up the quarter

I remember exactly when the Dead got busted considering I followed them

Real hippies are today mid 60s and up

Hipsters generally under 35

New Orleans is hipsters no question especially the inked ones and the lesbian ones

We still go at least annually usually twice and in fact are debating Thanksgiving there in a weekly rental

There or Sanibel Naples

New Orleans is now totally black run and it shows

It is much much more dangerous and just less well run.

Pity

It’s our most unique city

My earliest memory is breakfast at Woolworths or Walgreens on Canal in the upstairs fountain area in around 62/63

She was a foolish girl who allowed herself to get off on the wrong track and then she refused to see it or if she did to do anything about it.

All the outside intervention in the world wasn't going to help unless she wanted to take ownership of her problem and do the right thing instead of simply following her own lusts and delusions. She chose the latter too long and paid for it with her life.
