Well either you do not actually go to new orleans or you are so far out of touch with reality and your head is so far up your arse that you are ignorong everything around you and hiding in a rich neighborhoodthat crime doesn'ttouch. I listen to the 4th district radio for the Algiers area every day im at work and i know for a fact crime is horrible.

15 years ago you’d have been bitching about gentrification.

Any serious person knows what’s going on in Nola over past few decades. Any business selling products there can see the numbers. Speaking personally with facts I know and have experienced directly through working in Nola for 20 years, the people that spend money on goods and services in Nola are getting fewer and fewer every year. The economics are just flat out bad and crumbling.

Tourism is as bad as it’s ever been.
Businesses closing.
More people leaving than moving in.

More importantly, families aren’t moving to Nola. While a recent college grad might be excited about tune prospect of living in such a storied city, productive families with young children are not. Why would you live in Nola where you have to pay extra to send kids to private school? That alone is a financial burden that would keep most families from moving to Nola. I know it would be the biggest factor for mine.

how many gulf coast cities are doing significantly better?

How do hurricanes and associated insurance costs factor into the issues you’re describing?

Because Soros DAs aren’t recording offensives as crime and prosecuting. Felonies reduced to misdemeanors when they do.

The “believe us or your lying eyes “ days are over. Good folk have had it with this crap.

Because after George Floyd many cities and municipalities quit reporting crime and violent crime. They also started reducing/dropping charges and not convicting people based on what their race is. Basically, black people were committing so much crime it became 'racist' and 'unfair' to use statistics to point this out. Even with the reduced or non reporting the violent crime and interracial violent crime statistics are still dominated by black people. We live in a world now of 'feelings' and not actual facts. All of this is well documented.

It’s really sad that that you’re so propagandized/pumped full of fear and anger that you’re incapable or unwilling to have an honest conversation. It’s hard to watch. I will pray for you.

Is this the new Republican mantra now? Any statistic we don't agree with is a lie or fake? It sure seems to be from the top down.

Embrace your new overlords from The Heritage Foundation.

No. 'Feelings' is no longer reporting into FBI Crime Database or reducing or dropping charges all together because one group of people commit so much crime not only against each other but other races as well. Even with the non reporting the interracial violent crime statistics are ridiculously skewed. Your position on this is so god damn dumb you are making me agree with SDVCuck for christ sake! Think how insane that is he isn't ever right about anything.
