You do if it’s blocking the street car tracks. Idk if hers was, but that’s usually why they’ve had people pick up.


You gotta be a real dummy to block the tracks while the streetcars are running.

All she had to do was move her shite and when they passed put it back


No shite and just make friends with the people next to you. I had a nice chat with the park and parkways people as they came by. Just a couple of tarps at this point anyway not blocking the streetcar.

You support selective enforcement of laws at fricking Teedy's discretion.


Uhh Box... we are saying the same thing... you just said...

You don't even have to move it if you're out there with the stuff. Just make friends with the people next to you and work in shifts to "guard" the stuff


stay with your stuff and this isn't an issue. Don't care if it's one person who has a bunch of stuff. At least make an attempt.

The people dropping off stuff last night? Yes they are.

Nah, Teedy and people that support anything she does are the douchebags. Me working around her stupidity does not mean I support it.

People staking out spots 24 hours in advance and leaving their shite unattended are douchebags regardless if teedy is also a douchebag

Do you not support it because you are ok with people dropping off stuff and claiming land like they are Chris Columbus?

Or do you not support it because you think the city has more pressing needs?

I t cracks me up, the city can’t fix a fricking pot hole, but when they pick up people’s Mardi Gras shite they’re right on it…

What a shite hole..

The woman makes a valid point, the homeless basically have a landfill under the over pass and the city doesn’t give a shite, but put chairs before a parade, oh no…

It tells me she was with her stuff since they didn’t take it..

Everyone knows how this works.

Next Thursday and Friday, they will clear out the underpasses and the NOFD will go wash them out.

Homeless will return a few days later.

Then, about 4-5 days before the Final Four, the city will do it again.

They always do it right before big events.

Rest of the time, they don't care.

I feel like everyone is the a-hole here, except the guys getting yelled at just for doing their jobs.

Clearing homeless camps without a plan to house the people either kicks the can down the road or makes it someone else problem. The solution to such extreme poverty isn't to just allow them to camp wherever, and it isn't to just clear out camps that will return in a week. These people need things like rehab, mental health facilities, jobs, etc. They don't need the city to throw away the only semblance of a roof over their head just because.

The lady seems to think it's an either or proposition when it's not. She sounds like an extremely entitled woman. She can put her shite out 4 hours before or just stay with it if she's so desperate for cheap beads she'll throw away tomorrow anyways.

Also, Teedy sucks arse regardless so she'll probably clear the camps before next weekend and act like she fixed the problem.

That’s fair.
We need a better description for those folks who go spray paint huge section on Orleans for Endymion weeks before the parade.
