ok then maybe she was referring to the actual progress made re: violent crime.
That was my point
Which is exactly why you see the posters reply about infrastructure quoted directly above my comment

so you want americans rounded up and put into camps?
That's a weird spin to put on it.
I think forcing people who don't have a home to live in a "camp" is reasonable given that they aren't incarcerated (i.e. can leave) and aren't forced to live there if they have other living arrangments.
Why wouldn't you want to help these people?

because this is america, and we don't force people to live in fricking camps, especially not because they are homeless. and this is coming from someone with an extremely strong aversion to the homeless.
it's always the types who claim to be "small government constitutional conservative" types who end up advocating for shite like forcing the homeless to live in camps.

You are spinning my post like a fricking mad man. I said the problem appears larger in NOLA because it isn't confined to one small area of the city, and cited an example of Skid Row in LA of a city where a large majority of the homeless live. No one ever mentioned rounding them up and putting them in camps. You completely pulled that out of your arse.

They simply need to fence in the under parts of the interstate system so they homeless cannot form tent cities under them.
1) They are in heavily trafficked tourist areas
2) There have been significant rat infestations because of their refuse
3) They have become crime and drug havens.
Make them disperse so they aren't in single congregations.

I'm struggling to see the downside.

What progress was made exactly? New Orleans has a horrible crime rate, declining infrastructure, corrupt politicians, incompetent leadership, and an embarrassing school system.
The city hasn't been the economic driver the state needs it to be for 20+ years.

Anybody have a link to an NO crime map like the ones that pop up here for Br?

All day everyday Nextdoor app and The Ring Doorbell app is full of crimes like these
I's like to see the city address these petty crimes as well as the others....THAT would be progress
Experience teaches that the failure to deal with the low level crime like this results in a lot more of the serious crime. A serious broken windows policing approach could be very effective in NO. But it won't happen (1) because Mitch gutted the NOPD, and (2) the criminals and their enablers, who are part of Latoya's constituency, won't allow it.

Stop and frisk would have prevented this

If madam mayor really wanted progress she would ask SU and Grambling to host it somewhere else.
Theres no reason to have it in New Orleans.
The two largest HBCUs in Louisiana playing a game that still carries a lot of significance in the black community, shouldn't play the game in the NFL stadium in the largest market in the state where the schools reside?
What?

true but that has not slowed tourism at all.
why is that? pretty fascinating tbh
Outside of a couple of major incidents (which are a huge problem, don't misunderstand me) the vast majority of crimes happen outside the tourist areas.
Even this particular situation seems to be a "beef" between people that decided rather than take out their frustrations behind a back alley, they were just going to fire into a crowd and hope they hit their target.
When people decide they don't want to live here... usually crime isn't the main reason. It's jobs, schools, infrastructure, taxes, etc.
