Rather than appropriating money for more local anti-crime programs, which have just worked so well before, try this:
” Congress funding could cut N.O. crime rate 50 percent “
If Waste, Fraud, and Abuse were figured in to the ‘crime rate’ figures, then the headline would read:
‘Congress funding to triple N.O. crime rate’
Funny....usually Federal money merely transfers the criminal class from the street to the white collar....prolly less violent...some ACLU type somewhere’d get bent because of “discrimination”....somehow.

Hell, double the amount and get rid of crime completely!!!
More of my tax dollars being flushed down the tubes. Some of that NO trash moved here and they brought their “culture” with them. They don’t see this as an opportunity to improve themselves, but a ripe area to carry on their with their crime and drugs.
Oh yes, giving money money to democrats to set up more govrnment buraucracies has always resulted in reduced crime rates...
Why not take that same money and build more “housing”( max secuity prisons) instead? Lock criminals up for life as they shoud be instead. We wouldn’t need more police cars etc. if they didn’t keep letting the same criminals out over and over again to breed and make another generation of criminals.
Shortsighted congress. You need a way to move criminals back into NO before you can fight crime.
“It is possible to buy a used school bus for $5,000 that originally sold for over $70,000 or a nearly indestructible stainless steel passenger coach for 10% of the original price.”
New Orleans reminds me of the really bad movie, Escape From New York.
Seal it off and allow it to die.
No, I didn’t read the article. Do I have to?
Why don't they just go out and steal some more new Cadillacs?
Oh yes, let’s throw MORE money at the problem!
That’ll finally fix it!

Well, for such a liberal city, why such a crime problem? I thought everyone in NEWAWLINs enjoyed life? Only during Madi Gras is this possible? Then again, the mayor just let the buses sit with no attempt to evacuate those in need.
So, what's the purpose of the city and state governments? To sit around and do nothing and suck up federal tax dollars? Maybe the police can place some dead chickens at the premises of known criminals and issue all globbermint employees and civilians some of these:

beaut-ti-ful
My mom and my brother live in Baker/Zachary, home of the 600 unit trailer city. Since Katrina, she has had her purse stolen at Wal Mart, my brother’s home was broken into, and a family friend’s son was killed for his wallet in Baton Rouge. There is a lot more, but too much to list here. BTW, it was never like this before.
I keep telling my congress critters - I have no desire to further “fund” things for NO. Those in charge need to get it right with the money they have instead of spending it foolishly or lining their own pockets as they have done in the past. In addition, I don’t want my tax dollars to go toward rebuilding anything below sea level. It will just flood again someday, probably some day very soon - a complete waste of money.
Thanks for the post.....I needed a good laugh and the Mayor gave me one.
