A few more years of this crap and the Mardi Gras parade will be run entirely by the indigeneous domestic terrorist crews (gangs).

The city only looks like chocolate, it’s really stirred up $h*t.

Who the heck would bring a one year old into that mess. Assuming of course they were not sitting on their porch.

I would never go to Murder Gras.

NOLA is a third world rathole.
That toilet needs to be flushed again.

It’s time for the US to withdraw from New Orleans.

Figures. After seeing the “residents” actions during Katrina, I would never set foot in that ghetto.

A friend’s e-mail:

Three and one-half years after Katrina there are still 17,000 former New Orleans parasites living in hotels and motels. They’ve been there for 42 months .. and just can’t seem to find a way to get out and get their own housing. Not only that, but there are still another 8,000 people living in temporary housing who can’t claw their way out as well. How would YOU define these people? Sterling citizens? Worthy Americans? No ... they’re human parasites. They are the people who made New Orleans the most welfare-dependent people in this country .. the people who brought New Orleans its sky-high crime rates ... and now Obama has given these people another 60-day extension in their hotels, motels and temporary housing.

Change you can believe in?

Hey, it wouldn't be Fat Tuesday without at least ONE shooting! I'm just glad no innocent bystanders were killed, in what seems to be a personal attack by some guys on a couple of others. I had to laugh, though, at the description of the injuries; he was shot TO the abdomen, and she was shot TO the thigh, rather than IN either one.

This kind of behavior has been going on for as long as I remember, and I started going to Mardi Gras in 1966. I haven't been in years, since we moved away up North, but even then, gangs of young men would roam the streets looking to start trouble. My cousin got stuck on the back of the hand with a knife, in 1967, after cutting through a crowd of boys, when she and my sister were looking for a place to go to the bathroom.

Our youngest son is in college in MS, and he was invited by some friends in the dorm, to go to a Mardi Gras parade over the weekend. He wisely declined.

I really like New Orleans. I’ve been there a couple of times for bachelor parties, my own included. This was Jan 21 of this year. That said, I wouldn’t go for Mardis Gras. Too much going on there at that time.

Two suspects in custody of the NOPD following today's shooting. Glad that I stayed indoors today.
