His main point is that the st George people are stealing the money and resources from his people
And why are they the resources of “his people”? Commercial activity is thriving in St George compared to BR proper.
Claiming it is the entire parish’s resources because the mall is there ignores that two malls in BR failed in part because the areas around them turned to shite.

Gary played fast and loose with what "Baton Rouge" is, in that video. He did an explainer linking BR to EBR, but failed to really distinguish the fact that the city of BR has its own expenses/taxes. Which then allowed him to vacillate between all the concepts, including the "parish has provided services to STG". Well no shite, everywhere in the parish gets parish services.
Why is BR (the city) getting taxes from unincorporated areas? That's the big question he avoids.
