Nah, man, taxes on sports gambling and rec. marijuana are going to pay for all that. People are so dumb.

That would be a good use for it. A giant nursing home. That’s what it has looked like for years already.

JBE is following orders from trumps administration almost to a tee, right?

regardless, i think both parties are fricking us over, its about time more people realize that instead of thinking the conservatives have our best interests in mind with this crap. they clearly do not




You are a fricking idiot, but I actually agree with this. JBE has pretty much followed the federal government's guidelines. If he had a R by his name instead of a D this board would be talking about how well he is handling the situation. And its funny how they think that because an elected official has a certain letter by his or her name that they would respond a certain way.

At one time it was spreading like wildfire in the New Orleans area which is believed to be due to Mardi Gras so I understand why we had to be a little more aggressive than other states.. But all these people know is whatever they hear on whatever political talk show or news channel they listen to/watch.

No is my easy answer, trump has 14 days between phases
JBE has 21


They both even require phases so they both can go frick themselves. Reopen everything and reopen it now.

I understand what you are saying, but if you think casinos should be open instead of taking precautions on the elderly you are an a-hole.

I believe you own gas stations so maybe you are biased. I lost my granny cause of this stupid shite. There really is no right answer except frick china.

This entire thing was political. This will go down as one of the biggest scams in world history.

school system


Under Edwin Edwards, when they approved casino boats, all of the tax dollars generated from gambling was going towards the schools. I wonder if anyone held their breath until that would happen?

It would’ve closed anyway. They’ve been trying to sell it for years. It’s a POS
