re: New Orleans Police Scanner--anyone ever listen to this craziness?

Or when there is a body...lol

Chicago is basically NOLA just bigger.

My Father who retired from St.Louis PD, listens to the scanner every night. He got so used to it, that i think it's a soothing listen. Makes him feel comfortable, puts him at ease.

He's usually listening to STL, but also does Chicago, and/or any city where shite is going down.

I can imagine 33 1/2 years of listening to the polics radio for calls, and then no radio, makes you miss it.

A white female got the shite beat out of her at Rawhide in the Quarter. I didn't realize that women were allowed in that establishment--well I guess we now know they aren't allowed there.

I bet this dispatcher makes a mean gumbo baby

Yes. But to be fair, NOPD is woefully short handed and can't respond to everything.

If only they had money to hire enough officers and government leadership to hire strong leaders.

We're too busy throwing free festivals and events for people in the burbs to come in and enjoy.

Been waiting on crime lab 3hrs. Have blood on the window and need to swab DNA.

I wish I knew the code verbiage. shite show. Can't wait to listen on a full moon Saturday night.
