Which city would be happier and is better suited to be a part of Texas: Shreveport or Lake Charles?

Neither. They couldn't bring their casinos with them.

how is this even a question? Shreveport is obviously the answer, Lake Charles isn't even very Texas

Shreveport, and i don't even mean that as a bad thing

LC still has a lot of Cajun culture and shite. NLA doesn't have that cultural tie in any proportionate rate so it's much easier to be part of another state's culture

Id say Shreveport.

At least Lake Charles has some semblance of Louisiana culture.

If anything Chuckians don't talk in the backwoods east Texas twang like Shitportians

Well Texas is a better state than LA and Shreveport is a better city than Lake Charles. Shreveport by a mile.

Except for Mardi Gras. Shreveport and Bossier City have some huge Mardi Gras parades.

Shreveport is already considered Texas by anyone south of I10.

All you need to know is on Sunday Shreveport watches Cowboys games, not Saints games.

I live in Shreveport

I wouldn't mind being part of Texas.

Better roads, no states taxes, better schools, etc

I guess people in TX consider Beaumont part of LA and we consider Lake Charles part of Texas. Brilliant.

Exactly. Louisiana citizens should actually wish their home was in Texas. Louisiana is a trashy, poor, uneducated mess as a whole, and the neighbors to the west are booming.

Lake Charles also has a pretty big Mardi Gras parade.

Lake Charles IMO is pretty similar to SE Texas. IMO it is a nicer, faster growing version of Beaumont.

Shreveport is a traditional southern city. It's more like McComb or Jackson.
