re: Residents Blast Mitch Landrieu today in special meeting

If this truly reflects the thinking of the city's highest elected official is it any wonder the place is vying with Chicago for cesspool of the year.

New Orleans' demise began in the days of my youth with white flight (the economics of entrepreneurship) and it's reality came to the forefront with Katrina and post-Katrina.

This most recent initiative of removing monuments will not heal the ails of this once great city...life should be so simple.
