Was coming here to say that.

I got down voted. Care to debate it?

I downvote any mentions of downvoting and go back and downvote your original post.

What's the deal with y'all?

Long story short: He likes to troll NLA, I was stupid and drunk enough one day to take the bait, and he got my message board version of the Taken Phone Call. I got banned for three years, I'm back, and he keeps trying to get me to snap again. Won't happen though, but I find his efforts to be entertaining.

I do think that I made him kind of angry and made it rather personal when I told him that every single time that I reply to him-no matter what I say-that it will be like I am hocking up a big loogie and spitting it right in his face.

Used to be Jefferson until they moved to the Northshore.

The black population in Plaquemines has actually been declining. I know a few blacks from Venice/Port Sulphur and they're all good people

Holy shite, as I'm reading through this thread, it's astonishing how many people have mentioned plaquemines...

The only recent trend I haven't liked about BC is that there has been some section 8 apartments popping up and while the crime is still very low, you do get a lot of riff raff in the neighborhoods.... Haven't had any problems yet

What parish doesn't have any rednecks or coonasses?

Should have down voted yourself

A lot of us originally from Plaquemines probably know of each other or at least our families. I can't picture Placebeaux, but I probably have seen him around quite a bit as a kid. The Parish is the smallest in the NO metro and the demographics of this board says we probably played baseball against each other or were at least at the same parks all the time.

Katrina changed the parish A LOT. Belle Chasse was already getting expensive, but now it's getting worse. I'm not familiar with section 8 there, but it's probably going to current parish residents so the threat of absolute thuggery is probably low. Crime isn't really a big deal in plaquemines to the point that the PPSO turns what would be little things in other places into big things there. The lower end probably still hasn't gotten back a third of the pre-Katrina population, but a lot of people are in Belle Chasse making the total population similar. Before Katrina, there were 3 highschools on the southern end with ~700 students just in highschool. Now there is 1 highschool with ~250 students.

I've always said that until you've met a creole from 'down the road', you haven't lived...

There is definitely some interesting characters and some good, genuine people down there..
