This is the original post
Hello all! I’m a New Orleans native and have lived here my entire life. I’ve been seeing lots of posts about “crime” and many comments and opinions from people who feel they know the solution.
I’ve seen comments from people stating certain “corner stores” should be closed down as a means to rid the regular customers and the people who hang out in front of the stores [poor blacks]. I’ve also seen comments stating certain “home owners” should be held accountable for the violence that takes place in front of their homes. The people who made these suggestions believe these solutions would deter the crime and violence that takes place in these areas.
Now, I’d like to talk about how tasteless and, of course to many people’s disdain of what I will say next, RACIST those suggestions and suggestions similar are.
First of all, nearly all of the neighborhoods who will be able to view this post had been primarily black for decades. These were the areas poor blacks dominated forever. Gentrification has sadly pushed many black people out of their homes and neighborhoods that they’d lived in for generations. To all of the people who are not natives and who have not lived in these areas for many many years, this is looked at as a win. People who are not from here and who buy these expensive homes, that were no where near these prices 15 years ago, just want to feel safe and rid the criminals. Okay.
I look at it like this, anyone who was born and raised in New Orleans knows that crime is just apart of the culture here. In no way am I saying that crime is acceptable, but it is inevitable. Any urban place is bound to have crime. And especially an urban place where oppression is also present. For those who recommended that the stores where blacks hang out or shop at should be closed or the people sho own the homes they hang out around should be held responsible, how racist do you sound? What you’re saying is, get rid of the blacks and you’d therefore get rid of the crime. It’s sickening. I hope you all know that gentrification is a crime as well. It may not be a crime under the law, but it is surely a crime to rip up families from places they have had their roots embedded for years. So many black schools are now in “white” neighborhoods. That is because it used to be our neighborhoods. But we were thrown out in order for richer and people with lighter complexions to enjoy the culture that we created. Well, the price you all pay is crime. Crime is a direct result or socioeconomic oppression.
Louisiana and New Orleans as a whole and as respective entities do not make any of the things that would help poor Louisianians at all. Our health care is dead last. Our education system is dead last. Our maximum unemployment was $247 a week for God’s sake. Please, someone explain to me what poor people are supposed to do when the place they come from and the place they are supposed to identify with centers all its focus on tourism and attracting outsiders for profit and the locals are left behind. Please explain how poor people are supposed to get the education they deserve when the prison system gets more funding than the school systems. Please explain how poor people are supposed to make an honest living when the jobs here don’t even pay enough to afford the cost of living. This city caters to tourists and everything is centered around what brings in the biggest bucks. The locals are left scraps, yet the city feeds off of our culture. If the government is successful and finally gentrifies the last few black neighborhoods and blacks have no option but to find sanction elsewhere, I hope it’s understood that our culture will go with us. Our crime, our music, our food, our indians, our second-lines, our soul and our spirit.
You CAN NOT take crime and black people out of New Orleans without taking the culture with it. Black people have created majority of the culture of New Orleans that so many know and love us for. It all starts and ends with racism and the unfairness of a system that was never created to include blacks.
If we blacks are gone, so is everything you love about NOLA.
Maybe if more people would understand the part systematic racism has played; the school system becomes a primary focus; healthcare becomes a primary focus; minimum wage becomes a reflection of the cost of living; and maybe if hell freezes over, maybe THEN, the crime rates would be allowed to drop.
Other than that, I recommend the people who can’t take the crime go back to where the hell they came from. I surely wish you all would. Then, we locals who originally lived in the neighborhoods that were stolen from us can sleep comfortably at night with the crime going on outside the way we’ve done for decades. This is OUR house.

GreatLakes started a thread last night about New Orleans crime.
The OP was exactly what is in the tweet Rouge posted an image of, but it was used as if it was his own words.
This is showing that he is a fraud.

This is "the wife" that you called a crack whore. I have never used drugs or sold drugs and I'm definitely not a whore. So that was way out of line. Yes we did divorce once and yes we did get remarried after we learned how to communicate and no it was not over drugs.
So Kevin did have a drug addiction at one time. He's been clean for quite a while now. We understand that struggle and wouldn't wish it on anyone. We are very sympathetic for anyone dealing with that. He never sold drugs in his life nor would he approve of it. I was there when they did the search. They did not find drugs anywhere except in Jason's car. The federal investigator told Kevin that Jason used him. The detective knows that Kevin did not know what was in the car. If that's the neighbor you are talking about, that explains a lot. LiLi Fan did not build that house. She bought it well after Kevin's dock was already built. Li Li was the one calling the HOA on Kevin because she didn't like the trees on the property line. Kevin gladly cut those down even though they were originally required by the HOA. There were no pelicans there were lions and there was no court order there was a single request from the HOA. You claim to know all these things for a fact but the only way to know for a fact is to be there. You weren't. You hide behind your screen name and spout off things as fact when the things you are claiming is in fact not fact. The only fact is that he was indicted which means accused. It does not mean guilty. Do you know how many people are indicted and found completely innocent? As far as comparing him to a contractor that actually took advantage of elderly people that left them homeless that's just ridiculous.
Kevin has never sold drugs or helped anyone to sell drugs. He has an outstanding record as a contractor and as a human being. You are taking his interactions with a difficult neighbor as who he is. Most of the things you are claiming would have happened several years ago. Has he ever done anything to you? It's obvious that you have a personal beef with my husband. Instead of pretending you are all big and bad posting on this site. Why don't you make an appointment with Kevin at his office or home and tell him your problems with him to his face. He goes to work everyday. He would be glad to hear your complaints and address them in a respectable manner. A friend alerted us to this thread and we wanted to respond since the things you are claiming are untrue. Please contact us. Owe and Kevin would gladly piss in a cup for you to get analyzed to prove that fact.

I thought this site was to rant and banter back and forth. Never knew there was some credibility factor requiring ownership or references for everything posted.

Holy shite, this is her bargaining chip?
“If you don’t let us rob and kill you we won’t make shitty rap and do parades?”
I think most people are willing to take that bargain enthusiastically.
And she’s acting like all blacks are lowlife thug POS. Which is emphatically not the case

That would almost seem like the definition of an OT poster. Usually, about 50% of the posts stir shite in at least one pot I own.
