No data..
This is from 710 Keel's website.
"For the past few years New Orleans...has been trending down. Now, with the shutdown, we believe that if we don't clean up the Quarter and bring it back with a bang, it will have a negative impact on tourism as we open up the doors nationally and internationally. So goes New Orleans, so goes tourism around the state."
So he made a patently false claim with no data to support his move to take the FQ from the city. What a moron.

I don't think it was daily. And I'm not sure I believe all of them.

Wouldn't even have to pay them, just revoke their freebies unless they agree to live in a camp town 2 hours from anybody who wants a functioning civilization. What are they gonna do?

Practically speaking, the failed public policy in New Orleans created this monster. It would take generations to fix even if there was the willpower to do it - and there isn't.

It’s cute that y’all think a new mayor fixes anything. Trump could be mayor of NOLA and there would still be crime.
Absolutely, 100%, could fix most of the issues.
It will never happen though because Giuliani type guy isn't getting elected.
New Orleans needs Broken Window policing, Stop and Frisk, blight control, massive resource upgrades in the prosecutors office, etc.

it would take things that are to hot politically. Like a real 3 strikes your out, ending welfare and replacing with a mandatory jobs program, holding parents responsible and having juvenile offenders removed from dysfunctional households. The problem would be over in less than one year.

There is a lot of data that suggests broken windows policing doesn’t work, or at least was not the only factor leading to reduced crime under Giuliani.

it's really amazing that we, as a society, have already collectively realized beyond a shadow of a doubt that these type of measures don't work.... but people still insist on them

1. end war on drugs

Step 1: arrest people when they commit crimes.
Step 2: actually prosecute them rather than drop the charges
Step 3: Set higher bail or hold them without bail so they can’t get out of jail and skip their hearing
Step 4: take them to trial and convict them with sentences on the harsher end of what is allowed by law so they’re not let back out on the street at the first opportunity
New Orleans people, unfortunately, elect judges and DA’s that refuse to do steps 2-4 so why should NOPD bother with step 1?

The crime problem does not stem from anything the Mayor does. The issue is the court system. The police know who the repeat offenders are because they lock them up regularly. Probably 90% of violent crime in NOLA is committed by repeat offenders. If the justice system doesn't quit FRICKING around and letting these bums back out onto the street, nothing will change, ever. NOTHING. Period.

The entire state probably needs that.

a shite load of the petty crimes like b & e, carjacking, robbery, etc are committed by 15-17 year olds who are back on the street the next day.

You mean other than more programs? Cause we def need more programs. And community investment. So much investment. Toss in a little midnight bball and boom. Utopia.

Is this the thread where the people who aren't from New Orleans, or who left New Orleans, and who generally profess not to give a shite about New Orleans, complain about it and pretend to know what they are talking about?
