It's been years, but my folks had their car stolen from the "secure-monitored-24-hours-a-day" hotel parking lot, and the staff could not have been less interested in their plight. That was the last trip they ever made to the Big Easy. I'm sure it's the same for many others who once loved the city.

At least they wren't beaten or murdered- I used to be amazed in N.O. to see defenseless tourists wandering around off the beaten track at night- hell, I carried a .45 all the time and I didn't feel safe in a lot of those places!

I think that tourists sort of have an idea that anywjhere they go on vacation is a "theme park", nice and safe. Not true at all!!!!
