NOLA is awesome. Go and have fun. Guarantee 99% of this board has never had an issue with crime in NO


Just today I walked on Canal St., and crossed over into the Quarter to get some food.

Pas few weekends the wife and I have gone to various spots Uptown.

Thanks God I have lived to tell the tale without being killed or maimed.

There’s no way. According to this board, if you even drive through New Orleans you’ll be shot or carjacked. You must be lying.

Me and my girlfriend got robbed at gunpoint in Louis Armstrong park walking back to our house ~3 years ago. About 8pm. Dusk but not dark. Luckily they only cracked me over the head with a pistol and not her. But yea, continue to act like people are crazy for mentioning the rampant crime. It’s the reason we left that shite hole.

Of course there’s crime. But what’s crazy is people on TD acting like NO is just terrible and you’re stupid for going and call it a shite hole. 1 million people are in the area and 10 are victims of crime each day? The point is, the odds are overwhelming that you can go to New Orleans and be safe. But yes, there’s always a risk.

Haha. Hahahahaha. Bwahahahahahahaha.

Oh, you were serious? Are you DeStroya’s PIO? If not, and can lie like that with a straight face, you should apply.

Just guessing and rounding as I did with the 1 million number. So how many per day are there? Go ahead and tell us. I know I didn’t clarify, but I was thinking of crimes such as: shootings, attacks, robberies, carjackings.

You could just go up and down Magazine, St. Charles or Freret and find lots of places to eat and drink.

I’d go uptown with College Kids. Magazine Street. Tchoup. Etc.

Crimes per day. You literally said 10. 10 crimes per day in New Orleans LA. There are at a minimum hundreds. Thousands if you count the ones that go unnoticed. I’m love NOLA but let’s not be a complete idiot.

No. It's at Yulman. Dumb. OU travels well. Would have brought 20k to 25k to the dome.


You won’t be wearing masks in yulman though
