Let's not forget that in the last 3 days nola has made headlines for having a murder rate higher than Chicago, and for spending a small fraction of what it should be spending on road maintenance. Our mayor's priority? A statue. Not the gutted nopd, or the blood in the streets, or the crumbling infrastructure. But a statue.

possibly a tactic out of Trumps book...when negative news comes out do something outlandish, to sweep what's really important under the rug.

Into an undisclosed warehouse never to be seen again, that is, if it stays intact during the removal by the jackleg contractor.

Probably to that sack of shite John Cummings and his slave museum. Speaking of that, how terrible is it that he's profiting from such an atrocity?

The truly sad part in all of this is I can't find a single resident who gave two shits about the statues before our divisive mayor opened his mouth.

We currently have white hipsters who are from out of state trying to speak on the behalf of local black residents and white (some supremacists) from out of state trying to oppose them. None of the local residents interests are being considered.

Shame on Mitch Landrieu. He has done nothing about the Confederate street names in the city. That is unacceptable.

Like in your memory, because it's part of our history?


What other memories do you want erased?
