A lot of people wonder if the entire Lee Circle monument will come down. The mayor said today, the column will stay and only the statue of General Lee will be removed.


Nice. A big, white veiny dick will be left standing.

It's going to be tough to run for president sitting in a jail cell


No way he gets jail for this unfortunately. I know that is not what you want to hear, but its NOLA politics.

Unless the Feds are involved, he is free as a bird. Go back and look at the history of NOLA politics. The only people that sent any of them to jail were the Feds.

The removal process has been costly, involving dozens of police officers who made three arrests Tuesday night. All told, the mayor anticipates removal to cost around $600,000, a price he believes is a bargain compared to the alternative.

"There's a reason why in 1960, New Orleans had 680,000 people, and now Houston and Atlanta dwarf us...they are more inclusive and progressive cities," Landrieu said.


This motherfricker here.

No. They decided to take a serious approach to city-government, crime, and education. And didn't bow down to pandering tactics. Thus growing their economic base and, ultimately, the population.

Between this action, the support of the Washington Post the other day, and the New York Times floating him for President, he's got ALL the media backing to begin a run for president in 2020. Those two papers set the agenda for the rest of the "mainstream" media. What they write, is what gets reported on TV and radio.


except for the fact that he has no actual accomplishments as a political figure. i mean i guess trump is president so anything is possible but what is he going to run on?


Rotfl

Who needs accomplishments these days. We elected a 1st term junior Senator with no experience as POTUS.

So taking down the statues and being "more inclusive and progressive" will stop white flight?

Father and son arrested.

Check out the charges.

quote:

Father and son Michael Kimball, 57, and Christopher Kimball, 31, both of Norco, were arrested and charged with criminal damage to historic buildings or landmarks by defacing with graffiti. The Kimballs were seen by Eighth District Commander Nicholas Gernon spray painting the monument base with the words "Gen. Beauregard CSA.”


What fricking monument? It's gone!

You're talking in circles. What's your point.

You said New Orleans politicians don't go to jail.

I said they do.

Then you just agreed with me.
