I don't want to play your link game, but why don't you just man up and answer the questions?
Do you believe SG supporters are racist, yes or no? (if you want to straddle the fence and say yes and no, then answer as to the majority)
Do you support the petition currently being circulated to allo...
re: Mall of Louisiana

In reading these threads, I cannot help but notice that the guy says things that are completely contradictory.
Says SG supporters are all horrible racists, but then begs them to stay in EBR schools to make them better
Says SG is dead now that MC has annexed the mall but still desperately wants...

Posted by tdg on 5/15/14 at 3:58 pm
I'll answer your question using myself as an example. I support SG because I am philosophically in favor of more localized gov't and think it will lead to better schools. My kids are in private school, so I don't have the same motivation as SG residents with kids in public schools. I signed the p...

First, I think the leaders of the SG incorporation are doing as good of a job as anyone could do under the circumstances.
But the opposition to SG has nothing to do with the leaders of incorporation. BR wants SG tax money. Period. The SG movement could be led by a Democrat, a Republican, an ...
re: Metro Council votes for annexation of the mall
Posted by tdg on 5/14/14 at 10:44 pm
The news just reported that none of the anchor stores joined in petitioning for annexation, so they are still in the incorporated area of the parish and would be part of SG if it is incorporated? Can anyone confirm or refute this? Did BR just annex the food court and parking lot of the mall or did ...
re: St.George may hold the trump card.
Posted by tdg on 5/9/14 at 5:22 pm
Take a look at La. R.S. 33:2-4. These statutes say that once the signatures are certified, the governor is to call a special election to determine whether the area listed in the petition is to be incorporated. These statutes do not specifically address what happens if an existing city attempts to ...
re: St.George may hold the trump card.
Posted by tdg on 5/9/14 at 5:07 pm
Your unnamed friend must live in a very special undisclosed neighborhood. I forget the exact numbers but a BRAC poll recently found that the majority of SG residents support an independent school system and about 36% support creating a new city as a means to do this. The BRAC poll did not specific...

Sure they do. They just look at the private property and say it is now public property. You seriously think they are bothered with property rights?...
re: St George leaders avoid answering questions from their constituents
Posted by tdg on 5/7/14 at 5:14 pm
If you know any of the St. George organizers, please extend my thanks to them for their extraordinary efforts to try and improve our failed school system. I don't know them but would like to meet them and thank them personally one day. I'm sure they understood there would be opposition from BR res...

This is actually be a good thing for SG. BR will get more St. George money to squander. St. George residents get great community schools and will prosper in the long run. This ransom is a small price to pay for all the benefit of incorporation....
re: Powerful forces all lining up to stop St. George
Posted by tdg on 4/17/14 at 8:43 pm
Absolutely. Just look at all the people that sit in 10 miles of traffic everyday to get ascension schools. Businesses go where the consumers are so st George will have plenty of tax revenue long term. Give BR the mall tax money to stop complaining and let st George residents govern themselves. ...
re: Powerful forces all lining up to stop St. George
Posted by tdg on 4/17/14 at 8:13 pm
I'd make that deal in a heartbeat. Increase in property values alone would offset that. Just talk of st George is driving up home values. Plus I pay thousands in private school tuition. And on top of that, businesses would migrate to st George and increase tax revenue and I value local gov't. Wou...
re: Powerful forces all lining up to stop St. George
Posted by tdg on 4/17/14 at 7:42 pm
Why? Seems like a good deal for both sides if this happens. Those opposing St. George don't give a damn about education and just want some St. George money to squander on failing schools and unions, which they would get from the mall and hospital taxes. St. George supporters, of which I am one, w...

It is not the lawyer that stops the investigation but if the husband says he wants to speak to his lawyer and cop continues to question him, nothing husband says will be admissible. I'm not going to waste my time citing case law but there is plenty saying this is so....

Why are you laughing at the U.S. Constitution?
