Insane alcoholic, hearing voices, screaming randomly, assaulting innocent strangers, flaunting weird obsessions.... Is there a city in the US with a higher per capita population of these nuts than NOLA? Is there a city where their dangerous and obnoxious behavior is more accepted as a part of the culture?

What the hell are you balling about? What part of NOLA culture is represented by this alcoholic walking down the street stabbing people with a tiny piece of glass?

ATL has their fair share too.

Birmingham has a one eyed dude that licks door handles going into restaurants on southside.

Yes. Pretty much every big city. San Francisco and New York probably have the worst cases. I thought there were a lot of homeless people in New Orleans until I moved to Washington. It pretty much increases with the size of the city.

I'm being fair in my assessment---

I have, but I still wonder if NOLA has them beat on a per capita basis.

what's crazy is that the people just keep walking. I would have smeared that bitch all over the sidewalk.

The New Orleans Police Department have identified the woman who walked down Decatur Street and randomly stabbed two men who walked passed her. She has been identified as 47-year-old Jeannene Meyer, but may be using the names Jeanne or Jeanie. Police say Meyer appeared to be mumbling to herself as she walked down the street and stabbed a 28-year-old man and a 62-year-old man. They sustained minor lacerations.

Well...only one of those is unacceptable in any US culture and she is now in prison for it. You've never left the city you were born in have you?

Really. That's some dumb shite right there.

Sorry for asking questions that you take as an insult to your culture and sophistication.
Sure, there are mentally ill people roaming the streets of cities and towns all over this country. In New Orleans, they seem to frequently be considered as local color, and find a city that seems to readily accommodate their unfortunate circumstances and lifestyles. Share some of your worldly sophistication and let us know if you believe that their per capita population in NOLA is average or if it might vary from the norm.

is the washington post good enough for you?
oh, and Louisana ranks #33 on mentally ill per capita in the US
I'm not even trying to defend New Orleans, I just want to show you how misinformed you are. Do some research before spouting out random shite

Your first link concerns homelessness, not mental illness. Certainly related, but not interchangeable.
Your second link concerns states, not cities. Can we agree that NOLA is not like the rest of Louisiana? (Not a value judgment, not saying better or worse, just different).
I'm sure you'll do some more relevant research before posting again. And thank you for going to such great lengths in an effort to answer the questions I proposed.
Also, I have one other friendly piece of advice. If random shite offends you and you believe that scholarly research is a prerequisite to posting, you may want to avoid the O-T. A quick scan of the page 1 topics should make it clear that random shite quite frequently trumps research in this forum.

The mentally ill homeless people in NYC push you in front of oncoming subways.

Not a single lunatic stabbing people on the street has ever been embraced as emblematic of "local color". Not one. And to answer your question, there is not one iota of evidence to suggest that N.O. has a higher percentage of said lunatics than the norm.
