At this point who gives a frick? They're all coming down and it's too late to stop them. Time to get over it and move on.

S&WB vehicles are being used. I said this before, but my uncle works for the NOFD and said they forced a station to close for the night and take down the Liberty Monuments. Not sure if they did the same for the rest.

NOFD shut the commenting down. Email went out stating any "negative" comments will result in termination.

I'd like to know why such a stalwart government watchdog like Tom Aswell isn't all over this story.

Landrieu must be making some serious threats to people to keep them at arms length over this deal. This should have everyone in the media screaming to high heaven over how this was handled. I don't care which side you are on, but the way this has been handled has been the most god awful example of government overreach I've ever seen.

There is not a single thing right, ethical, tranparent, or true OTHER than the fact that the monuments did, indeed, get taken down.
ONLY the TEDN and other monument destroyers even pretend to believe the continuous line of delusion and dishonesty that has come from the mayor about this issue over the last two years. Lots of folks are making money or being threatened to carry out this work. The city is moving at speed on this because, at some point, some entity WITH teeth, will eventually have something that puts it to a stop. Mitch wants them gone, and before such thing comes to pass. At which point he'll just shrug, claim whatever he'll claim : broke city, lack of support, oh well it's done nothing to do about it now.
He already has his effective victory and thumb-in-the-eye to any and all opponents as well as his Progressive/race-baiting bonafides for the national Democrat party.

Cuzan is some second rate black-owned company with no reviews, no website, barely any business info, etc. The only tie they have to New Orleans is owning a large lot by City Park that they paid $100 for. Yes, the owner paid $100 for a lot next to City Park
