How would you "fix" Baton Rouge
1. build a loop
2. emminent domain house and properties to make a true traffic gird
3. build a dueling/ shoothouse park so that gangbangers, husbands that catch their wife in bed with another man, etc can have a place to kill the person that offended them without outside violence.
4. require a dress code if you are going to be out in public
5. legailze cocaine and hookers

1. Return to neighborhood public schools.
2. Build the northern bypass
3. Close Washington street exit on i10
4. Create expressways for Airline, Florida (east of Foster), and Nicholson (south of brightside)
5. Increase BRPD funding for community policing in areas needed.
6. Use eminent domain for Valley Park and build office parks and residential development

- go on a street connecting spree, not afraid to exercise eminent domain in attempt to develop a competent street grid
- more sidewalks and bike lanes
- southern loop with new bridge
- moratorium on widening of streets (get away from the collector street concept)
Agreed. Eminent Domain is critical to gentrification, especially between LSU and downtown. It's messy, it's not right, but it's the only way long term. Low income areas need to be taken away or simply priced out to the point where they leave.

I don't disagree with your assertion, but:
BRPD is more concerned about logging OT after LSU games and inspection sticker checkpoints than fighting crime. Throwing money at a problem, to be further wasted, won't solve the issue.
Your valid point could have been addressed with current resources and budgets, IMO.

Notice rational people are talking about infrastructure improvements, and you're making a shitty racist joke. Good job?

So I'm a terrible poster for pointing out blatant racism? I'm OK with that.
Any chance we can get back on topic?

Is it racism when assertions are backed up by statistics? Or are we simply not allowed to hold communities accountable anymore?
