New Orleans had a serious crime problem within just a few days of its founding.

This is where the Union Corse (Corsican Union) was born. That's the predecessor to the Italian and Sicilian Mafia that came along two centuries later.

I know, it was home for Carlos Marcello also, but that is a whole different kind of crime. That is organized and for the most part out of sight. I was talking about the kind of crime we are seeing now, street crime, and that started as I said with the birth of the welfare state and political correctness. This is all part of the same socialists plan to take over.
