Will Smith (NFL) shot dead in NOLA

Sad but Nola and Chicago gotta be two of the worst cities for shootings.
You're right about Chicago. But actually per capita Miami, St.Louis, Memphis, L.A., Camden, are just as bad if not worse.
99% of the murders in NOLA are in areas where tourists do not go.

NO other city could put on Mardi Gras, Jazz
Fest, French Quarter Fest, etc with very few incidents like NO does.
e,g, In February 2010, 800,000 people descended on NOLA for the Saints Super Bowl parade. 800,000.
Zero shootings or murders.
