Our wonderful mayor, who aggressively ignored BR’s panhandling problem for four years, is now concerned:

LINK

Also, despite remaining silent while having one of the highest murder rates in the country, same wonderful mayor now releases statement on her concern for the violence.

She is an absolute joke. What an embarrassment to Baton Rouge.

Do you have a link to her response to all of the BR murders that took place before this? Or is she only responding (if you can call that a response) to this because it's a higher profile circumstance?

To be fair, a couple of months ago she did scold the police union for pointing it out. I guess that counts as a “response”.

Concerned about a random shooting in a low crime area involving a POS hobo, but not concerned about the hood rats brawling and shooting each other in the streets

Took all these years for the studies to come back, baw.








She'll enact change in her next term... once those studies get finished up.

She wants a transparent criminal investigation ? Will the grand jury proceedings be televised ? WTF.


Let them do their job. Get out of the way and stop politically policing the city (one way or the other ). At this point , I don’t care who is elected, as long as it’s not her.

What is wrong with what she said:
quote:

"I am very concerned about the incident that occurred this past weekend outside of a local business, and I am still gathering information from the public and law enforcement. The situation is still under investigation and I have spoken with Chief Murphy Paul and asked him to conduct a fair and transparent review of what happened. I appreciate the citizens who have come forward with information thus far, and welcome any other information citizens might have. Every citizen deserves to be treated justly, and I promise to the residents of East Baton Rouge Parish that this investigation will be conducted fairly."

Please don’t be mistaken. She isn’t concerned about 99% of BR homicides. She clearly doesn’t care one bit. She cares about THIS homicide because of the political leverage she can gain.

Wrong, she’s “very concerned”.

It’s election season. She’s showing she’s very concerned at every opportunity. Expect more and more photo ops.

And I agree, she let’s these issues fester for three plus years and now she’s finally reacting now that the election is nearing.

She had ignored the panhandling problem for four years and clearly hasn’t cared about our sky high murder rate until now.

It’s pathetic and anyone that supports her in this is an absolute clown.

Nothing. What's wrong is that she said anything at this point.

the second she got control of office I remember there being a lot of crack downs on homeless beggers. Not aware of what she’s done since. I know they added fences under part of the north blvd flyover.

The only thing that bitch is concerned about is will she be able to get re-elected so she can go get another Benz lease.
