It's not even culturally part of louisiana. Most of louisiana is baptist, christian, etc and new orleans is a sinkhole of sin
Wow. One of your greatest posts ever

I didn't recognize it was you. In fact I didn't even see it was a troll at all until "Most of louisiana is baptist, christian, etc" and I presumed that was just an exaggeration for effect. The rest of your post is quite true.

Once again, congrats

Can definitely see this 15 years ago. Today, not so much. Seriously, look around at the once great American cities. The decline has been striking. Chicago, LA, St. Louis, Philly, Portland, Seattle. I could go on and on.

Eh, 2010 is 5 years post Katrina. New Orleans has always been a shithole, going back to the 90s.

New Orleans going back to chocolate city statu
The city was almost 70% black before Katrina. It is now only 54% black. It’s on track for its lowest murder rate in 60 years. This is a failure of a thread.

NOLA is what happens when you have shitheads running your government. A shame really because I still have fond memories of what NOLA used to be. Vibrant, electric, fun. Now you’re worrying about if you’re getting murdered walking to your car by some rando. Good to hear they are on pace for the lowest homicide rate in 60

I want to print tshirts and bumper stickers and anything else to make that label stick. "Sinkhole of Sin". That's genius

At least the Baptists in North LA not dancing have saved everyone.

I just told the OP that New Orleans is less chocolate than it has been in years. I didn’t make any other comments or excuses.

I know. I just have to be the a-hole that points out the obvious.

I’ve never heard someone express any of these opinions individually, much less altogether.
