I left NO in 93 in part because the crime rate had gotten outrageous. I believe that year that the city of Houston had fewer murders than New Orleans.
I believe that the power brokers find it in their interest to allow things to be that way, instead of really trying to help the people they represent...
Why? All their dull eyed psychopaths are here in Houston. This weekend we scraped a few more off the streets after they ran over a 2 year old in the act of hijacking a car. Really good job the dummycrats are doing over there in La.
When are our troops coming home from Nuevo Orleans???
What a crock.
This was a drug / gang related shooting that the police should be handling, oh wait they're busy handing out tickets for illegal left turns on Carrollton and Tulane Avenues, my mistake.
I'm surprised that nobody made the following observation that these five darling little angels gunned down in the prime of their yute will no doubt be added into the number of children killed by handguns according to the Brady Bunch, the MMM, etc.
'Bout time to call our congress-critters (especially the dims) and demand that we get out of New Orleans.
Almost a year since the hurricane... nothing repaired, nothing accomplished... $80,000,000,000 down the toilet; demand for $40,000,000,000 more... the perfect embodiment of the Democratic Party ... "Wah! I'm a victim! I want my MTV! I want free housing! I want free food! I want free air-conditioning! I want free champaign! I want a free Carribbean cruise! I want, I want, I want!... I cannot be held responsible for anything! Wah! WAH! Re-elect Nagin!...
Gee - what's wrong Nagin??? Can't keep "your people" under control?
