No, there's Troop B in Kenner which has traditionally worked in NOLA and now there is Troop N which is based in the FQ.

Scruffy bets they are all fine upstanding citizens otherwise.

This is a problem in Atlanta too but most of them are "teens." Most turn out to be stolen (shocking, I know).

Scruffy has heard that they are ordered not to chase them because it causes more of a hazard, but it is probably because NOLA is a dump or some variation of that fact. I've also heard that NOPD has been ordered not to pursue these jokers. I don't know if that's actually true or not, but regardless, NOPD doesn't have a reputation as the most proactive crime fighting force around. Their definition of "crime solving" is to have Michael Harrison's fat arse on the 6pm news asking for witnesses and home security surveillance footage, then saying to the camera, "(insert crime) is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Turn yourself in." The only way I see these guys getting caught is if four troopers bailed out of their Yukon while stopped in traffic and each grabbed the nearest idiot.


I saw three blow right by an nopd unit at crowder cut across traffic damn near cause several wrecks and hop on interstate. Nopd didn't even blink

These guys are on the interstate fairly frequently. At least a few times a month, I'd guess. I'm always amazed by the type of person with the "I'm going to ride a wheelie on an ATV at 60 mph with no helmet" mentality. Although I'm always hoping, I haven't seen one hit the deck yet.

I'm hard on NOPD because they seem to have more than their fair share of don't give a frick/it's not my problem cops. But in their defense, you can almost not blame them. Morale must be terrible. They deal with savages on a regular, of not daily, basis. I feel bad for the cops who are actually trying to do a good job. It's got to be like swimming against the tide.

NOPD essentially does nothing but take reports and block the streets so the coroner can haul off the shooting victims. LSP does the actual police work in NOLA. For them to have to not only handle the interstates but also the French Quarter is fricking ridiculous.

NOPD is a joke that honestly needs to be disbanded and reorganized.

Didn't the feds take them over a few years ago? Are they still in control or is it back in local hands?

Should have used their nightsticks to show those idiots what could happen riding without a helmet.

Random question: Does the officer holding the orange bag have his gun backwards or is that something else?

Taser, maybe? Righthanded would typically have his service weapon holstered on his right side. Taser on the left would explain the reversed grip.

Now they won't be able to make it to work on time tomorrow, but I'm sure these conscientious citizens will remember to call their boss to let him know they could be a little late!!!
