It's a stupid seal and they should just design a new one without people on it. Why the fuk are there snow cappped mountains on a seal of New Orleans.

I’ve lived in New Orleans for most of my life and I didn’t even know we had a seal before this.

Who cares

Almost anytime the Mayor has a press conference it is in front and behind them. All those hurricane briefings and statue grandstanding, it is there.

Pretty non-descript though.

Who gives a shite. Nola is a shite hole and don't tell me otherwise. I grew up there. Will always be run by crooks and idiots. THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT. Blame the poor folks who vote based on what they're promised and blame the old rich white people enabling it like Harry Connick Jr and other idiots. NOTHING WILL CHANGE. Stop trying to change it. Let it run itself into the ground. Then they'll be begging for people to come back and rebuild once they destroy the city.

So this Mayor was sitting around and thought to herself "Self today I can either work on a plan to make my cities streets smell less like shite, OR I can spend the day designing a new city seal?" And she chose the latter? That about sum it up?

I’ve been thinking about this for a while-

Tigerlilly would have got the D if I were Peter.

This pretty much sums it up


Newell Normand had a lot to say about it, and here are some of his HOT TAKES:

quote:

Let me go on the record: I don't care. If we're worried about the city's seal and the color scheme of New Orleans city seal, our priorities are not in place. With all the potholes, the issues with Sewerage & Water Board, with the fiscal mess, the fact that we are undermanned in the New Orleans Police Department…with the problems we face every day, we're worried about the color scheme of the seal?

Civil District Court is a joke. Have you ever been to City Hall? That's a bigger joke. An innocent bystander was shot on Canal Street near Palace Cafe. We have a power grid that lets squirrels and cats knock out power for thousands of people. And we're worried about the color scheme of the seal?

I don't know about you, but we don't seem to focus on the things that truly matter. What is the message you're trying to send? That you have the power to do this? That this is what you're focused on?

Forget about whether we're violating the public meetings laws, because a vote wasn't taken. Maybe it's because we have taken out our coloring book and our stack of colors, and we're worrying about whether the alligator should be a lighter shade with a different shade for the background?

I'm not sure the messaging coming out of the Cantrell administration is raising folks' confidence level one way or the other. This one completely baffles me. I can't figure out the message here. And I don't know about you, but I just don't care. At the end of the day, that city seal doesn't matter.



No we're not worried about the color of the seal...and it doesnt matter one bit......


But the Mayor surely seems to think it's an important issue....

He does make a convincing argument. Makes it seem like she's doing this because she can't get anything else done. I'd like to hear her rebuttal, but she won't have one

Let me warn you if you Google her to find a picture, you may want to be near a garbage can or a toilet.

It's social politics.. Obama did it the entire time he was in office, to make people think he was doing something when in reality he was grossly incompetent, negligent and unqualified.. Mitch was doing it when he took down the statues. It appeals to their voting base.. Let them think you're doing something for them, while you're stuffing your bank account with funds.
