This is as bizarre as the attack in Georgia a couple of days ago over cold chicken. And it's another reason why I carry.

Hope this video serves as a warning to those thinking of traveling to NO! Sad but necessary! I remember years ago on our first and only visit to NO being warned by friend (native of NO) not to venture beyond a very well defined perimeter which he specifically pointed out to us. 'Don't go past X St. here, Y St. here, etc.' It sounds like things have deteriorated quite badly!


I remember visiting NO in the 50s and 60s. It was great. I started noticing changes in the 70s. In the 80s I only went there when work dictated it. I haven't been there since 1995 by design.

If this were whites beating blacks, the internet would be melting and people would be rioting in the streets.


Downvote away but it's the truth.

Head back to LA for a week later in July, seeing family in BR. We had planned for a night in NOLA but I just don't think it's worth it anymore.

Hopefully somebody will step up and identify the animals! But I'm not holding my breath.

I wouldn't take the chance or waste my dollars. Visit one of the beautiful plantations instead!

And due to piss poor management it is one of our worst cities.

That initial punch wasn't all that much different than the one Jeremy Hill threw in BR.

Keep your head on a swivel when you are in certain areas down there. Situational awareness is key.

I would think that they would have heard running up behind them.

And as always.....be armed.
