This week, the New Orleans City Council voted 6-0 to ask the city's police and prosecutors not to use municipal resources to enforce the state's abortion ban. Orleans Parish Sheriff Susan Hutson hailed the Council's action, saying "our community elected me to bring progressive change. The babies the state law wants to save are unwanted intruders into the lives of the birthing persons who are trying to dispose of them. Using deadly force against these intruders was authorized by the 1973 Supreme Court Roe v. Wade decision. I am going to enforce that decision as long as I am the sheriff."
State Attorney General Jeff Landry pointed out that "the City's action does not relieve those who perform abortions from legal liability for their actions. While the person seeking an abortion may consider the baby gestating inside of her an unwanted intruder, the law does not. These unborn babies are human beings with an unalienable right to life. They have committed no crime that would warrant the death penalty the Council and Sheriff seem determined to inflict."
Hutson called the AG's stance "hypocritical. He's called immigrants who cross our southern border 'unwanted intruders.' Yet, unlike the situation where a pregnant person has quite clearly declared the person inhabiting her womb unwanted, there is no specific person objecting to the specific entry of any of our border-crossers. Are these people not human beings? Do they not have unalienable rights? Shame on Mr. Landry."
Landry says he sees "no hypocrisy. Crossing the border without permission is illegal. Being born is a right protected by Louisiana law. Illegal border-crossers aren't put to death like Sheriff Hutson wants unwanted babies to be. Under the Biden Administration's immigration policies, illegal border-crossers appear to face no penalties. On the contrary, most are given financial assistance and free travel to a destination of their choice inside the United States. State law in Louisiana says that unwanted babies' right to life ought to be protected. After they're born perhaps they can be given financial assistance and free travel to a home where someone will care for them until they are old enough to care for themselves."

Now the legislature needs to cut off all state money and resources.
They’re #1 in murders so what are a few “late term” abortions? You know 14 to 28 yr old ass-pie ring wrappers.
More libtard ‘democracy’ where laws they don’t like are simply ignored 🤪
Blacks in New Orleans are living in free “temporary” housing from Katrina some 18 years ago. The US taxpayers dime.
Ah yes, the Chocolate City
Nagin is still in prison isn’t he?
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic spreading in the prison, authorities released Nagin to house arrest on April 27, 2020
(Definition of Homicide = "The killing of one person by another, regardless of intention or legality.")
Sheriff Susan Hutson is saying she will not fulfill the office she was voted into. She should be removed immediately!
SO he is not really in prison. I guess.
