I always thought naming landmarks, schools, etc. after Traitors to the United States was odd.

He can't just shite out more money from taxes to pay for more cops. The city has far too many moochers in it. The biggest moocher in this entire place is the fricking crooked arse Sewage and Water board. That's the first dept. that needs to be gutted.

Landrieu wants to give minorities anything they need in order to get more votes


As far as his voting constituency, I would debate the "minority" moniker.

We need to do like the Germans do and pretend like nothing happened between 1932 and 1945. Except we need to omit everything prior to 1988.

Ok, do it. Speaking of history, lets make the Landrieu name history so we never have to hear from that shite family in La politics again.

I'm all about removing the confederate flag from public buildings. Removal of this statue is ridiculous. This is a historic figure. You might as well remove Washington off of the dollar bill. He owned a lot of slaves.

It's also weird how the north acts high and mighty over this issue when a lot of their political and military leaders had slaves themselves.

Should we not reference Thomas Jefferson anymore since he owned slaves?

Isn't Martin Luther King a reminder of the segregated times? Shouldn't we start removing everything named MLK? Let's move forward right? Get rid of all of our historic landmarks. Oops, Obama you are going to have to move out of the "White House" that was built by slaves.

Washington Ave. here in New Orleans.

Needs to go if we're going to be logically consistent.

Good!

The city's new gentrifires don't give a shite about some dead white guys who lost a war. Move that shite to Jefferson or St Tammany where the real white peoples will appreciate it.

Next up, Jefferson Davis Parish gets a name change. I think MLK Parish should be appropriate.
