Is there anything New Orleans doesn’t try to pass off to state taxpayers?

If FQ businesses want cleaner streets and more cops in their neighborhood, they should tax themselves to pay for it


They have. NOPD eventually gets themselves into the money they set aside for private policing...then you know what happens from there. Torres can only set the example so many times.

Would probably be cheaper than paying all the OT for the troopers


No it doesn’t. All it does is transfer responsibility for those troopers to state taxpayers.

Nothing would be accomplished except that New Orleans politicians will have more local tax revenue to steal and state taxpayers would have to cover more basic services for New Orleans.

But where would the La trash want to visit in the quarter if you cleaned up the trash? LOL

Cleaning that area up what hurt the city more than help, imo.

If y’all don’t know already a huge draw to the city is people kind of know they can get away with more bullshite there than almost anywhere else in the country.

So just like 6th Street in Austin, Broadway in Nashville, etc, none of which are as disgusting or crime ridden as the FQ. Hell, Beal Street in Memphis isn't as bad.

I didn't see anywhere in Broadway that I knew I could get a BJ for the price of a private dance.

Most of the shite you enjoy is due to the taxes raised in New Orleans, dipshit

Same people who look at paying for the Saints to stay is a losing proposition.

You think La is a shithole now?

Let’s take away the Saints and the French Quarter, while we’re at it let’s close the Port and the Airport.

Then you’ll see what a real 3rd World shithole looks like. The entire state will look like one.

It is a stupid idea, but somehow your ideas for why it should be rejected are even more stupid. Bravo!

Right, Beal St in Memphis. Half a block long and has maybe 100,000 visitors a year. That is exactly like the FQ
