New Orleans isnt part of LA. Louisiana is Bogalusa, Ruston, Lake Chuck, Alexandria, Opelousas, Many, Rayville, Baton Ruudge, Shrevetown/Bossier.

Not sure but doubt a world leader is going to any of those places.

Even more so because this city is as unrefined as you can be.

But it is essentially a third world city. Trash that doesn’t get picked up. Criminals that don’t get locked up. Streets that don’t get fixed up. It’s a crumbling mess of infrastructure that props itself up as a fun place to go to get black out wasted and puke in the street.

Have you been to Paris lately?

Let me guess, Dallas is the epitome of culture and refinement



No, dumb arse. I got stabbed in the arm by some middle eastern chick less than 30 minutes after leaving the Paris airport. I didn't sign some scam they had going and she jabbed the pen into my arm. That's never happened to me in Dallas.

Noplace is perfect. Paris has held up much better than Nueva Orleans. Doesn't help that Nola is slipping into the ocean


That’s what I’m saying. Paris is overrated. However It is leagues ahead of Nola. It’s a shitehole

Paris is incredible and isn’t overrated. I visited in 2019 expecting to hate it after all the stereotypes and stories you hear about the French and Paris as a whole and that it’s overrated etc. NYC is overrated. Paris is not.

I just got back from there. It’s in better shape than any large U.S. city right now.

So you weren’t accosted by all of the ‘refugees’ - people pissing and crapping in the streets, and shooting heroin? Lucky you.

yes, I still liked Paris and want to go back - but the similarity to NOLA was almost eerie

When were you there, and what area(s) of the city was this happening in?

For this trip, we actually hit more of the neighborhoods away from the tourist center, and I thought the city was in much better shape than NYC, for instance, which I’m in on a weekly basis.

A few years ago - in the 10th Arrondissement and by the Gare du Nord

Taking the train in from DeGaulle into the city was pretty depressing as well

Well - it wasn’t what I expected - too much romanticized Paris on tv - I had been warned by a friend who lived there, though

Ok, that’ll do it. Kind of have to grade on a curve around transportation hubs.

Well, we had walked from ile de la cite through the 10th Arr which was the worst part - there were so many cops at the train station it actually wasn’t bad there

It was fun, though, but I also enjoy NOLA and NYC

if someone can’t enjoy Paris, NYC, or NO, then that’s an indictment on them and has zero to do with the cities

Not surprising. Frenchmen like the smell of piss.

American schools get enough funding and already teach French, this is just another money laundering scheme

I was there this summer and it surprisingly looked a lot cleaner from when I visited in 2019. However some of the smaller cities we visited like Dijon were almost spotless.
