NEW ORLEANS – In the first four months of 2017, there were 71 murders in New Orleans.
Jeff Asher, a New Orleans crime analyst, said he believes the current homicide rate trend started in summer of 2016 and has continued into 2017.
“Over the last 365 days, we’re looking at 205 murders, which if were a full year it would be the worst single calendar year post-Katrina other than 2007 when we had 207 murders,” Asher said.

That's why we are taking the statues down. To lower the murder rate.

Make it 300. Would still rather live there than BR.

If you're not first your last

New Orleans is a shithole

Surely this won't affect the booming real estate market. NOLA is literally immune to any adverse effects on their real estate market and crime.

Jesus Christ. New Orleans and Memphis are without a doubt the shittiest major cities in the South. Sue me. It's the truth

Does this finally settle the BR vs. NOLA argument?

Chicago just passed 200 firearm homicides for this calendar year (from 1 Jan 2017).....if adjusted per capita maybe New Orleans has surpassed Chicago but not likely.
