You know exactly what is going on. The destruction of family, schools and any notion of structure or accountability are gone from society.

When this happens, you get this. It's just a coincidence that this is happening in just about every major city in America that has the same political belief structure.

Mayor Broome was just on my tv. She says we need a Summer of Hope.

That should fix things.

White supremacy. Private school Trump types. Our mayor is doing her best but as long as country music glorifies violence it’s an uphill battle.

More midnight basketball leagues and after school programs that have free dinner.

A couple of days ago there was a shooting in a parking garage for an apartment complex adjacent to LSU. The BRPD’s sole comment was, don’t worry it wasn’t on LSU’s campus.

The Mayor is an idiot and the Police Force has gone completely woke. They aren’t interested in fighting crimes. They’re interested in fighting “racism.”

Summer of Hope. We all just need a bunch of hugs not loads of lead.

This is what happens when you hire a completely incompetent token as a yes man for a racist bitch of a mayor.

Pretty much, but Homey D Clown could do a better job than MP.

Getting ready to move to Baton Rouge so how can I find out where are most of the shootings and murders occurring?

There’s a heat map somewhere with the shootings and murders on it.


General rules are to stay south of Government St, away from much of the area surrounding LSU (mainly streets named after states and so forth), and away from Gardere.

YMMV because a lot of areas which used to not have issues such as Sherwood below Florida, Siegen Lane, College Dr, etc, have gotten decidedly rougher the last few years.

If you drive around the neighborhood before you buy the house you’ll know.

Find a map of Baton Rouge containing all the streets and neighborhoods.

Then you will know where.

Yeah LSU is in decline due to the climate of BR. Will soon be reflected in sports performance. Guess ULL or more likely La Tech will be ascendant.

Likely true, TG. The Athletes can only be insulated from the peer pressure/culture to a certain extent. There is enough pressure to perform without the added pressure from either rejecting or friending problematic locals. No top tier athlete wants to walk that tightrope.

Part of it, yes.

The bigger problem is ghetto culture and how our society promotes and enables it without ever publicly identifying it as the problem. Baton Rouge leaders should attack the problem.
