Fox 8 article


quote:

NEW ORLEANS, LA (WVUE) - U.S. Sen. John Kennedy said he wants New Orleans police officers to implement a controversial stop-and-frisk policy, saying that crime in the city a crisis of almost Katrina-like proportions. "It's stealing the soul of this city," he said.



quote:

And Kennedy had strong words for Mayor Mitch Landrieu. "I'm sure the Mayor has an opinion on climate change, he probably has an opinion on world hunger, world peace, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict - but he's the Mayor of New Orleans and he's got 11 months left, and he needs to concentrate on one thing and one thing only and that's crime," said Kennedy.



quote:

"It worked in New York," he said. "It's the only way I know left to get the guns and thugs and dopes off the street. We got young people killing young people and now other citizens, and the reason is they got these guns, and until you get the guns you're not going to stop it. The criticism of it is it's racial profiling. No, not when it's done correctly.



It's very obvious who is causing a large majority of crime in New Orleans. Thugs are terrorizing the city to the point it's not safe to visit the FQ at night or drive down I-10 East in the middle of the day. We need stop and frisk now Mitch. Put your 2020 POTUS campaign on hold and fix our crime.


If you go down to Canal St at night it is easy to spot the criminals from the normal citizens. I'm not a detective but look how easy this is Mitch.


Criminals that need to be stopped and questioned



Normal citizens that don't need to be questioned.





It's kind of like rocket science but with less math and more common sense.

The problem is that NOPD has no patrol officers who are able to stop and frisk anyone. They run from call to call in an enormous backlog.

Sidney Torres made Mitch look like a bitch in the local NOLA Media war of words regarding crime years ago.

Then when Mitch told him to put up or shut up, he did just that and spent millions of his own money on an innovative, tech-driven and rewards-based localized community safety/policing system. Then he made all of the data and results completely open and available to the public, PROVING to Mitch it worked and laying down the gauntlet.

Mitch got trashed in the media and Torres was lauded, going all the way to the NYT who also showed Mitch to be a bitch.

Mitch then decided to play politics and claim he couldn't pay to keep Torres' PROVEN system going and asked for other people's money to pay for it. When he couldn't get that, he threw his hands up and focused on Murder By Monuments type shite, Sancturary City-building, etcetera.

frick that guy.

Look at this BS response from Mitch. First, he blames everything on the Feds and says it is their fault for cutting funding. Since when is street crime the responsibility of the federal government? If it is their business, then why am I paying local taxes? Chances he would be blaming a Democrat congress?

quote:

The Mayor looks forward to working with our Congressional delegation on improving public safety. We have long made detailed requests of them to restore funding cuts that decrease federal support for police officers and grants that would help New Orleans protect against a terrorist attack—specifically the COPS and UASI programs. We look forward to more engagement with them on continuing to improve proactive, Constitutional community policing efforts."

God forbid there was ever a terrorist attack here.

"downgrade it to a code one, signal 21 - general complaint."

Arrive 6 hours later.

For the locals who don't like the feathers ruffled.

I live here, I'm sick of it. I'm sick of seeing statistics of our violent crime. Sick of the daily shootings. Sick of the armed robberies, car jackings, and muggings. It is completely BS we cannot have a safe city.

Well when Mitch leaves, the populace will just replace him with another SJW, and nothing will change. In fact, it will just get worse. SJWs can't fix problems like this. If they do, they lose power.

Sorry, but this cycle will never end until the demographics change. That's not going to happen.

Yeah Just like in Chicago! And DC!

I'm always up for a good Mitch bashing, but this is just two liberals clamoring for control of the city through time tested, failed liberal policies.

I'm still in favor of the stop and frisk, though.
