It would not shock me to learn behind closed doors Tate has tried to address this with the city and the City basically responded with a vindictive, retaliatory response. It seems that the leadership of baton rouge is that petty these days. The mayor and chief police want to project the solidified front that crime is not the city's fault, and we all know that they punish anyone who doesn't tote that party line

If stuff like that happens, there's usually at least some quiet "chatter" about it. The fact that there's not here is probably telling. Having the guy we have in the Governor's mansion is likely not helping either.

There's a lot of potential for influence and action here, with a lot of people obviously doing little more than sitting on their hands - at best.
