No doubt a cleansing for the city of N.O. Most of the poor Blacks will never return. Doesn't bode well for the Mayor's career. Ratio of white to black may become even or reverse.

Many will wind up committing new crimes in new places. They will discover lawmen and justice systems much more efficient in putting them away.
