I think people in the south are more integrated with each other and black people are a much larger percentage of the population so people are just around each other more.

It's kinda easy to see how things in more Northern states could explode like this when everyone is still pretty segregated up there.

You guys almost rioted when Destroya cancelled St Patty's Day, I couldn't imagine what would happen if LSU football was cancelled

Not much.

When LSU wins championships we go wait in line at Academy other state loot and burn crap. I don't understand

If something like this happened in NoLa there would be riots. I think if it happened in BR today there would be riots.

I think the main reason we didn’t see shite in BR In 2016 was because Kip Holden didn’t allow it or promote it in any way. And it was hot as balls outside.

If it ever transpires I hope the rioters destroy the roads.

Look up the Shreveport Cedar Grove riot....
That riot only took place because we had a cuck yankee police chief whose idea of fighting crime was citing grocery stores for selling beer on Sunday.

IDK, man. If the Floyd video took place on Canal Street, you may see quite the show for a few days. Combine that with NOLA's Mayor and you never know what could happen.

I feel like rioting in the south is generally shut down quicker than Northern cities. Louisville got brutal last night but I barely consider them southern. I was born there...its not very Southern.

A fat, stupid, lazy populace isn’t conducive to riots

Idk about the rest of the state but Baton Rouge has a pretty unmotivated population.



It isn't that.

It's louisiana.

It's why I can't help but cut up with the brothers in a gas station. And old women love doting on young males of the opposite race.

We aren't here for a long time. We're here for a good time.

Definitely not in the summer time and it’s too rainy in the winter.
