Edwards political cronyism at its best but hey he got his casino licenses
And the mayor of Baton Rouge Tom Ed McHugh while a lot of southern cities grew and Baton Rouge did nothing with an abundance of resources at its disposal
Baton Rouge could have been like Austin, Charlotte Nashville and even Atlanta became a major city from where it was back in the 70’s

David Christy - convinces the South that the world would bend a knee to their “King Cotton”. From that ideal sprung forth the idea that secession was feasible and rational.

Bobby Jindal. Not for what he did, but for what he didn’t do.

Sad thing is that there is no one face but the system that is in place — the Police Jury System and Parish Sheriff’s Association.

Police jury presidents and sheriffs run/ruin this state and always have had their hands out — for decades.
