They should remove that category.

Latino/hispanic is a geographical and linguistic description not racial or ethnic.

A white petson from Mexico or an Asian person from Argentina are both considered Latino/hispanic


But people get upset when you point out that Elon Musk is African American!

It was created in 1879 when 134 delegates gathered in New Orleans and wrote a new state constitution.


And what does the current constitution - adopted over 50 years ago - say about the Orleans Criminal Clerk?

I've state numerous times that the legislature has the technical authority to do this.

The "Because they said so" defense is insulting. Ignoring all the context and challenges to democratic governance does not strengthen your argument.


Because they said so? By "they" do you mean the duly elected legislative branch? And "said so" means what - that the legislature passed a law that that they "technically" had the authority pass but you disagree with it? Isn't that the nature of democratic governance (even though we're a republic, not a democracy)?

Do you have any basis for your statement that the legislature can only abolish on office "at the conclusion of the impacted term?"

One last but serious question (and this is what baffles me about your argument): do you believe that Orleans parish should not be subject to laws enacted by the Louisiana legislature when they're not approved of by a majority of New Orleanians?

Let me see if I understand. You wouldn’t have been upset if Congress eliminated the position of POTUS after Trump was elected since voters didn’t vote for the creation of the office of POTUS?


If Congress had created the position of President (it didn't) then it would have the right to abolish that position.

Do you dispute that the Louisiana Legislature created the position of Criminal Clerk? Do you dispute that they have the legal authority to elimate that position?

After following your rants on this topic I gather your problem is that the legislature abolished this position after an election was held for the position. Under your logic, could this office ever be abolished?

The governor appointed someone to fill this newly created position. Voters were excluded.


You keep saying that even though you know it's not true

Thanks for confirming that you're a true believer socialist (not that there was much doubt).

Wasn't Trump talking about federalizing DC?


Would federalizing DC block any future effort to grant statehood to DC?

Didn’t he move to Baton Rouge?


I’ve been trying to figure out wtf this post was about … until I read another post claiming that “the gold trim on the United States flag signifies that one is under maritime law and therefore can be deprived of their civilian rights.”

I know crazy conspiracy theories can be fun, but some of you really need to pull your head out of your arse.

If a story has elements that sound like they were written by a wannabe screenwriter, you know it's fake.


I think that wannabe screenwriter is Ailsa.


There are plenty of posts in this Meme thread that make me wonder "why did they post that" - but even realizing this was posted by Cubbies I'm still scratching my head over this one.

In September 2025, nine mosques and cultural centers in and around Paris were targeted with a grotesque Islamophobic stunt: Bloody severed pig heads, each marked with the word “Macron” in blue ink, were left outside their front doors.

A few months later, three men from Serbia were convicted of the crime in their home country.


Leaving pig heads outside of mosque prompted an international manhunt?
