Show up and put spike strips on every exit route. Start pulling them over one by one and ticketing or arresting them. The ones that run don’t chase because they will have 4 flats soon. Pick them up on the side of the road and arrest them for evading.

What’s going to happen is an innocent bystander or child is going to be killed. And we can blame it all on the pure negligence of this administration.

Youve spoken to a BR policeman who told you all they can do to people doing doughnuts on the interstate blocking 3 lanes of traffic is to write a ticket and thats it? Because the mayor said so?

Baton Rudge is lost. And no amount of white affluence in SG or any surrounding parish will save it. Until Sickle Cell and heart disease changes demographics, the capitol is ruined.

The BR policeman I spoke with said they cannot make any arrests unless it’s a violent crime. He says those orders came from the mayor.

This is what I was told concerning an incident in my neighborhood- I didn’t think to ask about the street racers, sorry

All they have to do is buy a bunch of those trident things from FestnFerious. They shot his car and it died. Now I know who the Florida tire shops get their business from.

Siegen and I-10? It wouldn't occur to M. Paul to deploy a street racer task force to the Siegen area?


Siegen abd I-10 where McDonald’s, Taco Bell, Twin Peaks, Target, Chuck Fi La is all out of BR. That’s for our Sheriff to patrol.

BRPD is not even allowed to move homeless people away from buildings downtown based on the administration 's policy. What makes you think they're allowed to do more than issue tickets?

Thanks. Then take everything I said about BRPD and LSP and add EBRSO. Clearly, plenty of this bullshyt happening both in and out of city limits.

BRPD was too busy handing out MIP’s in Tigerland to worry about this.

Siegen and I-10? It wouldn't occur to M. Paul to deploy a street racer task force to the Siegen area? Unforeseeable? It's not like street racers appear on Siegen on the regular is it? Nope. The situation is if you work for BRPD you are are denutted. You go to work knowing the streets belong to the criminal, not you, and there is not a damn thing you can do about it. Also, I-10? LSP where are you. This ain't a cane field in the middle of nowhere. Siegen = La. Hwy 3246...that means you Troop. And ain't Troop A just one exit down the road (2 from Bluebonnet)? Time to be big boy cops and start busting arse, or just quit if you don't want to do it, or aren't allowed to. I guess BRPD doesn't do undercover operations. Get a Charger rigged with cameras and mics and join the street racer party. Talk to people. After, review the videos for tags, faces, plates, and even tattoos. Look at your FIC database and find some of the people you know you've dealt with previously and go make some arrests, impounds, and hit 'em with some heavy fines. Oh wait, fines and arrests are racist.


A few quick points if I may;

This is outside the City limits of Baton Rouge. Jurisdiction and responsibility for stopping this act falls dually on the East Baton Rouge Sheriffs Department and Louisiana Highway Patrol.

Task forces have been created and impound laws have been expanded. Arrest, citations, and impounds have occurred throughout the year.

The problem continues because the culture of offenders is massively abundant in this region. Draw your own conclusions.

Finally, even the most dedicated of cops are not going to volunteer to work Saturdays during the peak of the holiday season. Cops enjoy spending what little time off they are granted with family and friends just as much as every one else.

The laws of man and their enforcement cannot deter it all. This region is a perfect storm of negative life choices, lack of accountability, lack of fathers in the home, sprinkled with entitlement and the need for immediate gratification often fueled by social media.

I am just touching the surface to this iceberg, but I have gotten my point across.

You’re right, but at this point, your only reasonable alternative is to move out of EBR Parish.

Wow wtf.

So if I am hearing this correctly, I am free to pretty much just go steal whatever I want in the city and my only opposition would be a citizen? Awesome
