Confiscate all of the weapons.

Restrict speech, protest, gatherings, the press.

Allow for search and seizures without probable cause....

Well, a non-idiot mayor, a DA that actually wants to do his job beyond gaining political power, and a non-shrinking police force would help.

Tourists will never stop coming. Ever.

As soon as an area of town is safe, gentrification will take place and locals will be displaced. Community organizers and the City Council don’t want that to happen.

So you have locals who deny there is a real problem but are forced to drive on streets that look like the cratered moon surface to drop their kids off at an expensive private school, a government that is hostile to the tax base, other locals who pursue crime as an accepted way to make a living, and others who think that living off government checks is as good as they’ll get.

Annex surrounding parishes so the crime rate gets divided by more people

my house in Chalmette would be worth a lot more if it was a part of the city

10-15% of the population commits most of the crime (and this isn't some racial analysis). Get rid of that group and crime goes way down.

There is only one realistic solution as of now: leave.

Last big solve was Katrina, so I am guessing a named storm.
