A few figures that I recently heard. I may be wrong with regard to actual but I know I'm close. Mind you these figures were compiled before Katrine

In population New Orleans ranks #37th. in the Country.

Murder rate per capita in New Orleans is #1 among all U.S. Cities.

Prosecution rate for murder that result in guilty convictions for New Orleans District Attorney's Office runs somewhere between 37% and 41%.

People living in New Orleans are more likely to be murdered and murderers are more likely to avoid conviction.

Hmmm, because the Mayor is incompetent, like most government officials?

Government isn't the solution, it's the problem.
