this literally makes negative sense


They stole that idea from Harvey Dent in The Dark Knight.

It won't matter. The head guys make bail, sure... but the mid-level guys, they can't, and they can't afford to be off the streets long enough for trial and appeal. They'll cut deals that include *some* jail time. Think of all you could do with 18 months of clean streets.

but a better way to ensure they're off the streets is the higher charge

a lower charge = more likely to get out and it NOT disrupt the operation

Asked whether investigators had been able to connect some of the ATC activity that occurred inside the clubs with investigative work done outside the club by NOPD, Harrison said, "I think it's premature to be able to answer that right now because we're still working with State Police."


Fear not citizens! NOPD is on the cutting edge of crime techniques

The NOPD didn't begin its own education on victim-centered approaches to prostitution to enforce human trafficking laws until the second half of 2016, said Doug Eckert, the commander of NOPD's criminal investigative division, in an interview last year. JPSO Lt. Billy Hare, who leads that agency's vice squad, said in a separate interview that he became educated about best practices for enforcing sex trafficking laws as far back as the early 2000s.

A lot of people have nice careers and a nice lives in Chicago. You get economic dominance in return for their bullshite politics.

You get crumbling infrastructure and the the lingering smell of open sewers in return for it in New Orleans.

Why is Nola attacking strip clubs? If you want to be the tourist city where adults come to play, you can’t take away the adult attractions. Of all the shite that’s wrong with Nola, the strip clubs are probably 274473rd on the list.

Well we're not ranking New Orleans's problems. When Reggie's got popped everybody said we should just raze it to the ground.

Reggies got popped rightfully so. They were serving minors

The strip clubs got shut down for human trafficking, which the city admitted there was no evidence of any of it happening.

They are also doing it during the busiest 2 week stretch of the year. This would be like shutting down Reggies for no reason at all every home LSU game
