If you were going to pull off a terrorist attack, New Orleans would be a good place to try it. The entire administration, including the police force, is screwed up and incompetent from top to bottom.
I will give the mayor of New Orleans a bit of credit. She quickly - and correctly - identified the incident as a terrorist attack.
The public had a right know.
Meanwhile, the FBI was running around with their thumbs up their *****.
