New Orleans overtakes St. Louis to become the MURDER CAPITAL of America: Homicide rate up 141% from 2019 and carjackings rise 210% - as city's police staffing drops to lowest level in modern history

New Orleans overtook St. Louis as the US murder capital in the first half of this year, as the city struggles with its lowest police staffing level in modern history amid a crisis of officer morale.

In the first six months of 2022, New Orleans recorded 41 murders per 100,000 population, a higher homicide rate than any other US city, according to a Wall Street Journal analysis of data from the Major Cities Chiefs Association.

By comparison, the first-half murder rate per 100,000 was 11.5 in Chicago, 4.8 in Los Angeles and 2.4 in New York City.

Congratulations "Chocolate City". But I thought New Orleans is very safe because the mayor fears for her life flying economy. I never heard of a murder in economy class.

Sound like the “black lives matter” thing isn’t working out.

Yet many will say : it’s democrats or poverty or lack of police or underfunded schools or single parents.

Go to say Hazard county Ky, they are poor, you think they have violent crime rates like that? No.
What’s the difference? Answer—the people.

I won’t say more….

The most ironclad rule in the multiverse: “Leftists ruin everything they touch”.
Adios, New Orleans.

New Orleans is a city that was established by cutthroats, brigands, pirates, flesh peddlers, murderers, thieves and smugglers.

Unlike most American cities, it has held fast to the founding principles of its forebears.

Katrina halved the population. A blessing in disguise. Did everyone return?

Why don’t we take one last hit and ship these people off to their own states or countries. Give them their own utopia and with that fully segregate. Since whites are the problem, let’s end it fully. Or we will be hurting for generations to come...

Nope.

The Katrina refugees have firmly established themselves and their progeny in cities throughout the South (Baton Rouge, Shreveport, Houston, etc) and are vigilantly increasing the violent crime rates in their new digs to previously unimaginable heights.

Another once-beautiful city ruined by the democrats who collect a salary, deliberately do nothing for the folks, and blame the misery on the nearest Republican they can find.

It appears that the "Campaign for Moorish Dignity" is working as planned.

Who knew that St. Louis and New Orleans were the White Supremists capitals of America, cause dam, we were all told that white racism was the cause of all crime.
Was at dinner with my 2 sons that are both in the military the other day. Both h have high and tight hair styles.
The liberal Karen at the table next to us gave us the dirtiest looks. I so wanted to start speaking loudly about both sons heroics and honors with helping with 3rd world people.
