Why do we even have life in prison without parole?

Let’s just kill them. They add nothing to society and never will. What’s the point of keeping them alive?

Let’s kill all of the prisoners that are currently in for life. And get more strict on punishment.

Rape should be a death sentence. Human trafficking as well.

We have way too many people who deserve to be dead taking up space and tax dollars for far too long.

Let’s shake the etch-a-sketch and start over without these turds.

Once the dumbest people in a community have enough support to be elected into several public offices you are multiple generations away from a correction. We are way past that point.

Yea, they are building this beautiful new YMCA near government st & Foster. And of course, what is being built right behind it, a huge apartment complex. Government st is thriving, they are investing in the community, and what do they want to do, o let's build a huge building that we'll stuff with people who wont take care of it that will eventually become a section 8 shithole and fill the entire area with crime and creepy people.

I don't understand why I see so many Ted James signs in affluent areas.

I'd guess the hope is that he is just saying what he needs to to beat Broome, and then what he actually does will be better. While his ceiling is higher, his floor is also lower than Broome's. Voting for him is a gamble.

Sid Edwards is incapable of running BR and would almost certainly be more useless than Broome, so we are stuck picking from two bad options.

You just described most of Baton Rouge. There's no possible way this city can sustain the amount of apartment complexes being built.

The two Ds have been at each other more than either with Sid.

Neither will get 50p and Sid is going to a runoff I would think.

Baton Rouge is a reflection of bad decisions, indecisions, corruption, and an orchestrated attempt to destroy the family unit and create a dependent class politicians can manipulate and control, a society that has replaced their faith in God with faith in the government to fix all of their woes in life.

The only thing that can save Baton Rouge is for a giant epiphany to take place and people to not just recognize what has caused it, but have a change in mindset, and then we can work on answers to addressing it.

The schools didn’t get this way because something befell Baton Rouge.

The criminal element didn’t get this way because something befell Baton Rouge.

Neither did the infrastructure, or the lack of industry, decent paying jobs, etc.

Baton Rouge got this way because of Baton Rougeans, and even more so, people who brought this about from outside institutions and the Feds by pushing an agenda to ensure this is where Baton Rouge and places just like it end up at.

Until we at least begin with coming to grips with this, nothing is going to change. That’s a fact. Until we begin with the FAMILY first there is no hope for this place or places like it. It will only spread and it is. Only then can we begin to address and hold people accountable for the lack of emphasis on actual education rather than indoctrination, return to a moral code that is proven to work and which most all built their lives upon some time ago and was reflected in their society, and finally put a stop to the war to divide people on everything under the sun and cripple us, always creating divisions whilst claiming to bring about discussions, yet never emphasizing forgiveness, always resentment.

There are forces in this country intent on destroying this country from the inside out, and the sooner people come to grips with that the better.

What Baton Rouge needs more than anything right now is a revival and return to God. He literally is the only one who can and has the ability to save Baton Rouge from itself.

Would take 1 generation but educating these kids and taking them out of the negative homes would completely change the course of the entire area

The taxpayer paying for 12 years of boarding school is a lot cheaper than housing a prisoner for the same 12 years. Not to mention at the end of 12 years you end up with a functioning adult.

You can’t. The best part is that it is only going to get worse.

Yea, we couldnt possibly just renovate the huge area theyve already destroyed. We have to bring them into a functioning area so we can all eventually suffer.

You can't fix liberal cities


It's sad to say but this is true. You have to place your focus on the suburbs and the middle class that lives outside the city. That's where the tax dollars come from anyway. Inner cities in the Southeast are crime-infested, money pits. I can say that because I volunteered my own time, effort and money into the city of Memphis. After 5 years and I said Screw it and moved my family somewhere safe with good public schools and lots of parks. The Covid lockdowns were the final death blow to the inner city in the Southern US in my opinion.

And how exactly is Broome? What has she done that convinces you she is not in over her head?
