And these statistics are about 5 days old. Memorial day weekend totals push this a bit higher.

A recent string of shootings in New Orleans further boosted gun violence numbers in 2021, which, so far, are outpacing last year's numbers.

Six shootings in New Orleans since Monday morning left one person dead and eight people wounded, according to preliminary information from the New Orleans Police Department.

Nonfatal shootings are dramatically higher, so far, in 2021, with 155. A year ago, there had been 94. New Orleans ended 2020 with 429.

Armed robberies, which include all weapons, are up 15% this year, with the count at 142 through Monday.

Aggravated assault, which typically involves a weapon, has increased 45%, with 399 incidents counted as of April 26, according to city council figures.

I haven’t contributed to the New Orleans economy in over five years and I don’t intend to start again anytime soon. Let them destroy themselves from the inside.

police are scared to police because of the consent decree BS and cops suck narrative

the DA is under investigation and now hated by both sides for his decision put 15 year olds who killed a lady in a car jacking on trial as adults (when he said in his campaign he wouldn't put juveniles on trial as adults)

this is the most fricked up the city has been in a long fricking time

They cried and whined about gentrification and won, they got the statues taken away, it is more chocolate than ever and the mayor is one of them.

Seems to be working out as many thought it would.

Thanks for posting. It's been at least 4 or 5 house since the last "shite on NOLA" thread.

Honest question, did 2020 finish with a significantly lower number than 2019? How do 2021 numbers compare with 2019?

Memorial day was just a little sample to kick off the summer. I'd bet on a pretty nice uptick from here on out.
