I honestly have no idea why people still travel here.


Because until tonight, the national media ignored the issues in New Orleans and propped up LaToya as some strong black queen in command of a vibrant city.

The house of cards is collapsing and that’s really what Draconian Sanctions is upset about.

I don’t see any specifics just guesses.

I live in New Orleans, work in New Orleans. If you don’t agree that it’s descending into chaos than I don’t know what to tell you.

It very clearly is. Objectively.

Any downplaying it in any way or being annoyed with a national news agency displaying it as the negative that it is is downplaying it.

Significant issues should be portrayed in the most extreme ways possible.

Honestly, the only people to blame are those who live in NOLA and the government of NOLA.

Don’t blame me man. I voted for none of these people.

I want out of Orleans pretty badly at this point. It’s a total lost cause and it won’t get any better.

It’s depressing as hell.

Hasn’t that woman won nearly every award/grant that a mayor can win?

She was invited to the White House several times and just received some award for her performance as mayor

I can't think anyone who seriously watches Tucker changed their minds on New Orleans with his words.

So you’re a progressive lunatic coward that doesn’t realize your own hypocrisy and is mad because the man on tv pointed out the absurdity of your belief system.

Not the slightest bit shocking.

The metro crime commission puts those stats together and will send you their email updates every week. That’s what I was referencing.

It’s not even close to what it was pre-Katrina, to say nothing of descending into actual chaos. How long have you lived in New Orleans and what parts of town do you live/work in?

Well, he isn’t the mayor.

Democrats have been running that city since the 1800s.

Also, if the city is that far gone, why would anyone give a shite if it is portrayed in the worst way possible?

I’ve lived in New Orleans my whole life. I’m old.

The 90s murder rate was worse but isolated to specific areas and the corrupt NOPD would bust fricking skulls.

Now it’s not isolated at all it’s running rampant. The city is the worse I can recall in a very long time overall.

It’s not good at all man. If you say otherwise I say this with all due respect, but you are part of the problem.

It’s not the city, it’s the state. The state has chased out B&I, Fortune 500 Co’s, any new opportunities that would attract young, smart, taxpaying, workforce.

State policies are responsible for the situations in BR, NOLA, and Shreveport.

Look at the metro crime commission map and you’ll see it’s heavily Nola East and eastern Algiers

Also the specifics I was referring to were the actual specifics of Tuckers segment.

Which you did not watch.
