Show me the stats on non-drug using middle aged white males with no criminal records who are murdered in New Orleans annually, and that they are significantly higher than anywhere else




You think this is some sort of gotcha?

middle aged white men that aren't on drugs are never going to be the target of a dindu for mugging or carjacking, in any city. Unless it's a skinny jean wearing 145lb weakling.

I'm not worried about getting murdered in New Orleans, but that doesn't mean when i drive home with a busted window after attending the Pels game i should be ok with this non murder criminal occurrence i experienced.

I was a witness to an attempted murder and had to testify in court several times. Only involved as a Good Samaritan toward the victim. St Charles Ave uptown.


My HS gf was robbed at gunpoint. While we were dating. Girls trip that I protested. The dad that was supposed to chaperone was a total POS.

frick off with this nonsense. Friend had to rent a house because his was damaged during Ida. A block off magazine and Napoleon in a great area with high class people living on the same block. Had his car window smashed out at least once in the 4 months he rented there. That specific enough?



Initials TB? Same exact situation happened to a buddy of mine.

Back when we lived there:
Purse snatch
Husband attacked in broad daylight attacker said he was "havin' a bad day"
Heard gunshots that murdered a neighbor.

Horrible treatment by local government too often to count, ditto Electric co.

Minor theft: gutter torn off front of townhouse (it wasn't copper, they were stupid) stolen bug zapper, damage to car from ??who stole a can of break fluid that looked like beer in a paper bag, damaged car mirrors, stolen landscaping, etc.

Someone killed somebody in front of my house with a sword. I think that qualifies.

I forgot to mention all the stolen packages, my parked car getting totaled, the shootout in front of my house, etc.

My car getting totaled

Witnessed a drive by shooting while driving with my family and had tools stolen out of my backyard shed after Hurricane Ida knocked my fence down.

The shooting was shocking and the news reported it as drug related but it hasn’t affected me long term. Was honestly more frustrated by the tool stealing as it felt much more violating to know a crook was in my yard.

No, but I am not worried about getting murdered.

I haven't had my car window broken either. That certainly is a higher risk, but it doesn't keep me from going to Saints games and parking on the street.
