Moved here a year and a half ago and loved it. This summer has been a magnifying glass on the shite show. Statues, crime, constant threat of flooding.

My wife moved down here from Pittsburgh area for a job. Genuinely asked "why the frick do people stay here?"... I couldn't give her an answer.

I can't ride my bike down the Greenway without fear of getting a gun pulled. Two carjackings on my block in a month (in Milan).

The little bit of time I spent in Denver this summer had me in awe. It's incredible what picking up after yourself can do for your city. Unfortunately for this place there are equal amounts of trash and trashy people.

Anybody with half a brain shouldn't need a hurricane to evacuate.

Well, bye.

If you let statues bother you then you have a tough life ahead.

If you think the flooding is more than a political show then you are easily fooled.

Denver is a great place until you need to send your kid to high school or want to go see a batman movie.

You sound like a giant pussy to me.

New Orleans doesn't need any more carpetbaggers.

You moved to NOLA a year and a half ago and didn't know you were moving into a shite hole? I don't understand how that's possible

This shite has no redeemable qualties. There's only so much a few parades and some good trumpet play can vouch for.

It's a poorly run soup bowl with no signs of improving. The idiots are moving further and further into nice(r) areas and there's no accountability from a depleted and mostly incompetent police force.

I used to really enjoy a weekend in New Orleans.
Now, Place could burn to ground tommorow and I wouldn't lose a wink sleep.
