As much as the New Orleanians that wave the "only crime is in lower 9th" flag.

We aren't obsessed with a city we don't live in, that's you.

It's always the same people in these threads

We get it. You guys don't like NOLA and are very happy in your lives somewhere else. So much so that You start NOLA threads to bash it and justify your own decision to live somewhere else.

What about the objective moderates that neither loathe the city nor think it's God's gift to earth? I'm calling it for what it is: A cultural city with unique amenities that is the closest resemblance of a European city in America with glaring issues at every level.

Let's not always take sides in these NOLA threads. Can one be objective and have a civil discussion without being chastised?

Nothing wrong with this view. Normal people think like this.
The OT has way too many rednecks who took uncle bubbas training class on how to hate Nola and they post way too much bullshite.

I've got no problem with this, it's a very reasonable post. Its just the stupid shite that gets posted in these threads that gets old.

Meanwhile, in BRLA, a woman cannot even go to her mailbox without being violently raped.

Nothing give the rednecks a bigger hard on than negative Nola news.
Actually, nothing causes as much pleasure as watching NOLA defenders attempt to ignore the crime in their city.

It makes us uneducated rednecks giddy with excitement.

Lame response. Nobody ignores the horrible crime problem caused by the cockroaches who make up 2% of the city.

Who's ashamed?

Sorry for calling a spade a spade.

I have a different perspective spending my entire life there rather than many who have lived there a few years and think NOLA crime is exaggerated.

Not in the least.

Article just contradicted the thread that centered around "only crime in NOLA is in lower 9th/Treme/etc.
