Though Newton doesn't agree with every decision from the city, overall, he is supportive of the mayor.
“I don’t think that she is trying to dismantle the bar culture,” he said, “but there are a lot of people who are and they’re just grinning ear to ear right now.”
Amazing. Even in the face of facts.

White carpet bagging business owners do not want to say anything bad about the black female mayor of New Orleans.
People born and raised here have a bit more "don't give a frick", but even they are scared to say anything.

Many will not survive. Maybe even most.
Even when things are "re-opened", tourism is still going to be fricked for awhile, which means people have less money to spend at neighborhood bars.
We are going to see a restaurant and bar shrinkage worse than Katrina, and an even slower recovery.

The mayor has let it be known that she is not to be made fun of. She will retaliate.
Just look at Mardi Gras krewes, no one was allowed to make fun of her this year.

There are a couple of other liberal bar And brewery owners that did all they could to get Bel and Destroy ya elected and I think they will defend them down to the last dollar in their packet. Principled. But stupid.

It’s a very bizarre relationship. Very vocal and good for them but getting destroyed by these policies. I don’t get it.

Politics have become more important than anything. Any straying from ideological purity is a death sentence.
They’d rather have their business and life ruined than consider a different viewpoint.

Good ol' T Cuck Newton. Watches with a smile on his face as the mayor destroys his business along with hundreds of others.

Yeah, I believe avenue pub was doing this too. Despite being shut down directly due to Destroyas policies, they still refused to say anything bad about her. They deserve each other.

Yup, I was right, in the article.
This is grade A stupidity.
This is the exact result of liberal mindset. The equal sharing of misery. Or at least, the attempt at wanting everyone to be equally miserable.

I think the most damaging thing the city has done is a failure to enforce the rules. Right now we have speakeasies popping up all over the city. The illegal party houses and AirBnbs are not being shut down and enforced.

It’s almost as if the lessons learned in the failed experiment known as Prohibition have been completely forgotten. Americans, and not exclusively, crave a third place a bar, restaurant, meeting spot, to be with others. You can stop them from gathering in bars but you won’t stop them from gathering.

And our favorite liberal idiot brewery owner supporting the mayor and governor and blaming the people not wearing masks.

Courtyard is at least speaking on the hypocrisy. They can't blame Latoya for fear of getting Tracy'd.

He’s posted in some other threads blaming no mask wearers for the demise of his business. Not the idiots he helped elect

I still like him blaming people breaking the rules when he was the one that got shutdown for breaking the rules.

How is that stupidity? People not observing the rules prolongs the quarantine/shutdown, which further endangers local businesses that actually are observing them. Precisely what are you advocating for? Everyone going "wild west" style? Genuinely asking because your point isn't clear.
