Perhaps some locals in NO are simply seeking to emulate the locals in Chicago.

11 2 critically injured, no dead. Why does this sound like birdshot and anyone who caught a BB was “shot”. They like the “mass shooting” narrative I guess.

Missing from the excerpt is any mention of the ‘Bayou Classic’ football game played in downtown N.O. yesterday. This event always brings the boys to the yard, so to speak.

I have been in the quarter during this melee

It’s completely overrun with Bantu peoples

Much more than usual

Some are Preppie black kids in polo and izod

Some not so nice

Lots of fights

Whites are a distinct minority on bourbon street and targeted

My daughter and I watched it all from my second story bourbon street balcony at the Sonesta

It was fascinating in a DAILY MAIL way

We saw a lot of fights on our one block

Including one white girl who knocked the crap out of a white girl whose purse he grabbed

I was so angry I yelled and yelled politically incorrect invective no one could hear over the roar below and attempted to shimmy down the drain pipe as my daughter implored me to stop

The girls boyfriend just stood there.....a bouncer saw it all and intervened and the robber ran

It was the weekend they use the cop towers at the corners ..

It was entertaining honestly

I hated it when the bayou classic became a thing in New Orleans, that and black history month. The children are taught hate. I was in the main library one day and there was a meeting with children and the things that came out of the mouth of the speaker were disgusting.

How long will it be before racist tourists turn Bourbon Street into a ‘tourist desert’?
