Louisiana has everything it needs to be 3rd, behind California and New York.
Louisiana ... #3
But we have mafia.
Have you tried to open a business here? You have to pay people. Only Chalmette people know how much.

A benevolent dictator can fix the USA's banana republic, you say?

Is mafia a code word for something else? And what are California and New York 1st and 2nd in besides population in 1990, or number of fricked up liberals?

If New Orleans has a mafia, they hold their guns sideways, don’t aim at anything and use spray and pray shooting, and their highest ambition is stealing a Korean made SUV.

Oh, N.O. very much still has a mafia presence. If you think that the only gambling in the City is in the casinos, you are either very naive or just ignorant of the reality of illegal gambling dens all over the City. Or the number of bookies scattered throughout the Quarter and / or both sides of the river. Or who owns all the flat, one story parking lots throughout the City.

They are nothing more than business men.

Could argue NO would benefit from a stronger Mafia.

If TeeDee = Mafia I agree. New Orleans actual mafia isn’t woke and hasn’t destroyed what was left of the city prior to 2018ish. They might not be the best folks around but they didn’t do this

The basic expenses, licensing and corrupt grifters are on another level. Saw it in action yesterday and my thought was to get the f—k out of this place.

A proper New Orleans Mafia would make the city 100x better.

The Good Ole Boy system for the white politicians and the “stick it to yt” attitude of the black politicians along with a lazy and stupid populace in general is what keeps this state 50th in everything

Well... he did specifically mention NOLA in the title but it holds true for BR and many other areas as well.

I think he's referring to Crenshaw Mafia.

What makes these local business men bad? Have they ever hurt innocent people? Carjacked old ladies? Did mass shootings into crowds?

For the life of me, I don’t understand why people concern themselves with a few like minded people who, for the most part, are nothing more than business men.

I know this is a foreign concept, but crime and negative attention are not ingredients for a successful business.
